  - Squid is a caching proxy for the Web. Prior to version 7.5, due to premature release of resource during
    expected lifetime and heap Use-After-Free bugs, Squid is vulnerable to Denial of Service when handling ICP
    traffic. This problem allows a remote attacker to perform a reliable and repeatable Denial of Service
    attack against the Squid service using ICP protocol. This attack is limited to Squid deployments that
    explicitly enable ICP support (i.e. configure non-zero `icp_port`). This problem _cannot_ be mitigated by
    denying ICP queries using `icp_access` rules. This bug is fixed in Squid version 7.5. (CVE-2026-32748)

  - Squid is a caching proxy for the Web. Prior to version 7.5, due to improper input validation, Squid is
    vulnerable to out of bounds read when handling ICP traffic. This problem allows a remote attacker to
    receive small amounts of memory potentially containing sensitive information when responding with errors
    to invalid ICP requests. This attack is limited to Squid deployments that explicitly enable ICP support
    (i.e. configure non-zero `icp_port`). This problem cannot be mitigated by denying ICP queries using
    `icp_access` rules. Version 7.5 contains a patch. (CVE-2026-33515)
