CVE Reference:   CAN-2004-0918   (Links to External Site)
Date:  Oct 21 2004
Impact:   Denial of service via network
Fix Available:  Yes  Vendor Confirmed:  Yes  
Version(s): 2.5-STABLE6, 3.0-PRE3-20040702; when compiled with SNMP support
Description:   iDEFENSE reported a vulnerability in Squid in the SNMP service. A remote user can cause denial of service conditions.

The flaw resides in the asn_parse_header() function in 'snmplib/asn1.c'.

The system is affected if compiled with SNMP support.

The vendor was notified on September 15, 2004.

 Package name:           squid
 Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2004:112
 Date:                   October 21st, 2004

 Affected versions:	 10.0, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1,
			 Multi Network Firewall 8.2
 ______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 iDEFENSE discovered a Denial of Service vulnerability in squid version
 2.5.STABLE6 and previous.  The problem is due to an ASN1 parsing error
 where certain header length combinations can slip through the
 validations performed by the ASN1 parser, leading to the server
 assuming there is heap corruption or some other exceptional condition,
 and closing all current connections then restarting.
 
 Squid 2.5.STABLE7 has been released to address this issue; the provided
 packages are patched to fix the issue.
