NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream squid:4/squid package and not the squid:4/squid package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

A buffer over-read was discovered in libntlmauth in Squid 2.5 through 5.6. Due to incorrect integer-overflow protection, the SSPI and SMB authentication helpers are vulnerable to reading unintended memory locations. In some configurations, cleartext credentials from these locations are sent to a client. This is fixed in 5.7.
