RE: Reverse proxy ??

I would like to put it to the group to define a Reverse Proxy attack!

I would say a reverse proxy attack is something just as confusing.  Is it a
matter of obtaining cache intranet pages from the proxy, or is it tricking
the proxy in to pointing, and hence fetching, pages from another server is
shouldn't.

Does anyone have any pointers, docs or anything else that describe such
attacks, and possible solutions.

Cheers
