Description:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Squid, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
1) An error in the handling of certain FTP URL requests can be exploited to crash Squid by visiting a specially crafted FTP URL via the proxy.
2) An error in the external_acl queue can cause Squid to crash when it is under high load conditions.
The vulnerabilities are reported in version 2.6. Other versions may also be affected.
