CVE-2025-62168 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Red Hat security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for RHEL:7.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream squid-migration-script package and not the squid-migration-script package as distributed by RHEL.
Squid is a caching proxy for the Web. In Squid versions prior to 7.2, a failure to redact HTTP authentication credentials in error handling allows information disclosure. The vulnerability allows a script to bypass browser security protections and learn the credentials a trusted client uses to authenticate. This potentially allows a remote client to identify security tokens or credentials used internally by a web application using Squid for backend load balancing. These attacks do not require Squid to be configured with HTTP authentication. The vulnerability is fixed in version 7.2. As a workaround, disable debug information in administrator mailto links generated by Squid by configuring squid.conf with email_err_data off.
