Joshua Morin, Mikko Varpiola and Jukka Taimisto discovered that Squid did not properly validate the HTTP version when processing requests. A remote attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service (assertion failure).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
