Greetings, This months release of Squid HTTP proxy, version 3.5.6, contains fixes for two security issues. Issue #1: Due to incorrect handling of peer responses in a hierarchy of 2 or more proxies remote clients (or scripts run on a client) are able to gain unrestricted access through a gateway proxy to its backend proxy. If the two proxies have differing levels of security this could lead to authentication bypass or unprivileged access to supposedly secure resources. <http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.5/changesets/squid-3.5-13856

All Squid up to and including 3.5.5 are vulnerable. (when published the advisory for this will be <http://www.squid-cache.org/Advisories/SQUID-2015_2.txt>) Issue #2: This is somewhat more obscure, and I am seeking clarification perhapse more than assignment. Squid up to and including 3.5.5 are apparently vulnerable to DoS attack from malicious clients using repeated TLS renegotiation messages. This has not been verified as it also seems to require outdated (0.9.8l and older) OpenSSL libraries. <http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.5/changesets/squid-3.5-13849

CVE-2009-3555 was mentioned by the submitter, but that was clearly assigned for server-initiated renegotiation. This Squid change is specifically for the client-initiated renegotiation part of the TLS protocol flaw. There may be some relevant CVE already assigned, although I've been unable to find it. Only CVE-2011-1473 which is for the library itself and disputed. So, is server software being assigned specific CVE (or a shared generic one) for resolving this flaw? Please indicate which CVE Squid announcements should mention (if any). Thanks, Amos Jeffries Squid Software Foundation
