Hi,

squid 3.x seems to have re-introduced a security issue found by Ben Hawkes of
the Google Security Team in 2005,

 2011: http://www.squid-cache.org/Advisories/SQUID-2011_3.txt
 2005: http://www.squid-cache.org/Advisories/SQUID-2005_1.txt (CVE-2005-0094)

Will there be a new CVE required? Not quite sure how such "special" cases are
handled usually.

Does anyone know when this was re-introduced?  The upstream advisory
indicates all 3.0 releases are affected, but doesn't indicate if 2.x
(after 2.5.STABLE7) was at any point vulnerable.
