Squid 3.x < 3.2.12 / 3.3.x < 3.3.7 idnsALookup HTTP Request DoS

According to its banner, the version of Squid running on the remote host is 3.x prior to 3.2.12 or 3.3.x prior to 3.3.7 and is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability. A buffer overflow exists in the ‘idnsALookup’ function in the file ‘dns_internal.cc’ that could allow specially crafted HTTP requests that could result in a denial of service.

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