It was found that Squid configured with client-first SSL-bump did not correctly validate X.509 server certificate host name fields. A man-in- the-middle attacker could use this flaw to spoof a Squid server using a specially crafted X.509 certificate. (CVE-2015-3455)

This update fixes the following bugs :

  • Previously, the squid process did not handle file descriptors correctly when receiving Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) requests. As a consequence, the process gradually accumulated open file descriptors.
    This bug has been fixed and squid now handles SNMP requests correctly, closing file descriptors when necessary.

  • Under high system load, the squid process sometimes terminated unexpectedly with a segmentation fault during reboot. This update provides better memory handling during reboot, thus fixing this bug.

After installing this update, the squid service will be restarted automatically.
