DescriptionNVD

Squid is a caching proxy for the Web. Prior to version 7.5, due to heap Use-After-Free, Squid is vulnerable to Denial of Service when handling ICP traffic. This problem allows a remote attacker to perform a reliable and repeatable Denial of Service attack against the Squid service using ICP protocol. This attack is limited to Squid deployments that explicitly enable ICP support (i.e. configure non-zero icp_port). This problem _cannot_ be mitigated by denying ICP queries using icp_access rules. Version 7.5 contains a patch.

AnalysisAI

Squid versions prior to 7.5 contain a heap use-after-free vulnerability (CWE-416) in ICP (Internet Cache Protocol) traffic handling that enables remote attackers to reliably trigger denial of service against affected proxy services. The vulnerability affects any Squid deployment with ICP support explicitly enabled via non-zero icp_port configuration, and cannot be mitigated through access control rules alone. …
