tag_insight = "In DSA 1646-1, an update was announced for a denial of service
vulnerability in squid, a caching proxy server.  Due to an error in
packaging and in testing, the updated packages did not correct the
weakness.  An updated release is available which corrects the error.
For reference, the original advisory text follows.

A weakness has been discovered in squid, a caching proxy server.  The
flaw was introduced upstream in response to CVE-2007-6239, and
announced by Debian in DSA-1482-1.  The flaw involves an
over-aggressive bounds check on an array resize, and could be
exploited by an authorized client to induce a denial of service
condition against squid.

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 2.6.5-6etch4.

We recommend that you upgrade your squid packages.";
