The remote host is missing an update for the 'squid, squid3' package(s) announced via the USN-1713-1 advisory. It was discovered that squid's cachemgr.cgi was vulnerable to excessive resource use. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to perform a denial of service attack on the server and other hosted services. It was also discovered that the patch for CVE-2012-5643 was incorrect, allowing a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack
