  This problem allows a remote server to perform a DoS when delivering HTTP Response messages. The
  issue trigger is a header which can be expected to exist in HTTP traffic without any malicious
  intent by the server.

  This flaw was part of the 'Squid Caching Proxy Security Audit: 55 vulnerabilities and 35 0days'
  publication in October 2023 and filed as 'Vary: Other HTTP Response Assertion Crash'.");
