Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 21.04 : Squid vulnerability (USN-5104-1)

Description

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 21.04 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-5104-1 advisory. - Squid through 4.14 and 5.x through 5.0.5, in some configurations, allows information disclosure because of an out-of-bounds read in WCCP protocol data. This can be leveraged as part of a chain for remote code execution as nobody. (CVE-2021-28116) Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
