-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-15233 2011-11-02 06:37:07 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : squid Product : Fedora 15 Version : 3.1.16 Release : 1.fc15 URL : http://www.squid-cache.org Summary : The Squid proxy caching server Description : Squid is a high-performance proxy caching server for Web clients, supporting FTP, gopher, and HTTP data objects. Unlike traditional caching software, Squid handles all requests in a single, non-blocking, I/O-driven process. Squid keeps meta data and especially hot objects cached in RAM, caches DNS lookups, supports non-blocking DNS lookups, and implements negative caching of failed requests. Squid consists of a main server program squid, a Domain Name System lookup program (dnsserver), a program for retrieving FTP data (ftpget), and some management and client tools. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Upstream bugfix update fixing invalid free on certain DNS responses -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Oct 31 2011 Henrik Nordstorm <henrik@henriknordstrom.net> - 7:3.1.16-1 - update to latest upstream 3.1.16 fixing invalid free on certain DNS responses (Bug #750316) * Mon Aug 29 2011 Henrik Nordstrom <henrik@henriknordstrom.net> - 7:3.1.15-1 - update to latest upstream 3.1.15 fixing SQUID-2011:3 * Fri Jul 22 2011 Jiri Skala <jskala@redhat.com> - 7:3.1.14-1 - updated to latest upstream 3.1.14 * Thu May 19 2011 Jiri Skala <jskala@redhat.com> - 7:3.1.12-2 - enabled eCAP support * Thu May 5 2011 Jiri Skala <jskala@redhat.com> - 7:3.1.12-1 - Update to 3.1.12 upstream release - applied corrections of unused patch (Ismail Dönmez) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #750316 - CVE-2011-4096 squid: Invalid free by processing CNAME DNS record pointing to another CNAME record pointing to an empty A-record https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=750316 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
