  supporting FTP, gopher, and HTTP data objects.

  A flaw was found in the way squid manipulated HTTP headers for cached
  objects stored in system memory. An attacker could use this flaw to cause a
  squid child process to exit. This interrupted existing connections and made
  proxy services unavailable. Note: the parent squid process started a new
  child process, so this attack only resulted in a temporary denial of
  service. (CVE-2008-1612)
  
  Users of squid are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
  contain a backported patch to resolve this issue.";
