Amazon Linux 2 : squid (ALAS-2023-1907)

Description

The version of squid installed on the remote host is prior to 3.5.20-17. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2023-1907 advisory. - In Squid 3.x through 3.5.28, 4.x through 4.17, and 5.x before 5.6, due to improper buffer management, a Denial of Service can occur when processing long Gopher server responses. (CVE-2021-46784) - 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. (CVE-2022-41318) Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
