Squid 2.x / 3.x < 3.1.23 / 3.2.6 / 3.3.0.3 cachemgr.cgi DoS

According to its banner, the version of Squid running on the remote host is 2.x or 3.x prior to 3.1.23 / 3.2.6 / 3.3.0.3. The included โ€˜cachemgr.cgiโ€™ tool reportedly lacks input validation, which could be abused by any client able to access that tool to perform a denial of service attack on the service host.

Note this fix is a result of an incomplete fix for CVE-2012-5643.
Further note that Nessus did not actually test for this issue, but instead has relied on the version in the serverโ€™s banner.
