-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2012-20537 2012-12-18 01:54:09 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : squid Product : Fedora 16 Version : 3.2.5 Release : 1.fc16 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: Security update #887962 - DoS (excessive resource consumption) via invalid Content-Length headers or via memory leaks. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Dec 17 2012 Michal Luscon <mluscon@redhat.com> - 7:3.2.5-1 - Update to latest upstream version 3.2.5 * Fri Oct 26 2012 Michal Luscon <mluscon@redhat.com> - 7:3.2.3-2 - Resolved: #854356 - squid.service use PIDFile - Resolved: #859393 - Improve cache_swap script - Resolved: #791129 - disk space warning - Resolved: #862252 - reload on VPN or network up/down - Resolved: #867531 - run test suite during build - Resolved: #832684 - missing after dependency nss-lookup.target - Removed obsolete configure options * Mon Oct 22 2012 Tomas Hozza <thozza@redhat.com> - 7:3.2.3-1 - Update to latest upstream version 3.2.3 * Wed Mar 7 2012 Henrik Nordstrom <henrik@henriknordstrom.net> - 7:3.2.0.16-1 - Upstream 3.2.0.16 bugfix release * Mon Feb 6 2012 Henrik Nordstrom <henrik@henriknordstrom.net> - 7:3.2.0.15-1 - upstream 3.2.0.15 bugfix release fixing #772483 and numerous other bugs * Tue Jan 24 2012 Jiri Skala <jskala@redhat.com> - 7:3.2.0.14-2 - backported upstream fix for #772483 mem_node growing out of bounds * Thu Dec 22 2011 Jiri Skala <jskala@redhat.com> - 7:3.2.0.14-1 - update to latest upstream 3.2.0.14 - enabled eCAP * Mon Nov 7 2011 Jiri Skala <jskala@redhat.com> - 7:3.2.0.13-5 - fixes #751679 - host_strict_verify setting inverted in squid.conf * Fri Nov 4 2011 Jiri Skala <jskala@redhat.com> - 7:3.2.0.13-4 - fixes #750550 - Squid might depend on named - corrected path in Source{0,1} * Wed Oct 26 2011 Jiri Skala <jskala@redhat.com> - 7:3.2.0.13-3 - added upstream fix for #747125 * Wed Oct 26 2011 Jiri Skala <jskala@redhat.com> - 7:3.2.0.13-2 - fixes #747103 - squid does not start if /var/spool/squid is empty - fixes #747110 - squid does not start adding "memory_pools off" * Mon Oct 17 2011 Jiri Skala <jskala@redhat.com> - 7:3.2.0.13-1 - update to latest upstream 3.2.0.13 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #887962 - CVE-2012-5643 squid: DoS (excessive resource consumption) via invalid Content-Length headers or via memory leaks https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=887962 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
