NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libecap-devel package and not the libecap-devel 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.
