NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libecap package and not the libecap package as distributed by RHEL.

An issue was discovered in Squid before 4.9. URN response handling in Squid suffers from a heap-based buffer overflow. When receiving data from a remote server in response to an URN request, Squid fails to ensure that the response can fit within the buffer. This leads to attacker controlled data overflowing in the heap.
