Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the handling of the WCCP protocol. A remote attacker can send specially crafted data and corrupt Squids list of known WCCP routers and divert client traffic to attacker controlled routers.

This attack is limited to Squid proxy with WCCPv2 enabled and IP spoofing of a router IP address configured as trusted in squid.conf.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.
