According to its banner, the version of the Squid proxy caching server installed on the remote host is 2.x or older than 3.0.STABLE23 / 3.1.0.16. Such versions reportedly fail to correctly validate DNS packets, which can be abused by a remote attack to cause a short-term denial of service.

Note that Nessus has relied only on the version in the proxy server’s banner, which is not updated by either of the patches the project has released to address this issue. If one of those has been applied properly and the service restarted, consider this to be a false positive.
