Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'squid'
package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Squid is a high-performance proxy caching
server for web clients, supporting FTP, Gopher, and HTTP data objects.

Security Fix(es):

* It was found that the fix for CVE-2016-4051 released via RHSA-2016:1138
did not properly prevent the stack overflow in the munge_other_line()
function. A remote attacker could send specially crafted data to the Squid
proxy, which would exploit the cachemgr CGI utility, possibly triggering
execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5408)

Red Hat would like to thank Amos Jeffries (Squid) for reporting this issue.

Affected Software/OS:
squid on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 6),
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation (v. 6)

Solution:
Please Install the Updated Packages.
