Detail

Upstream developers of squid, the popular WWW proxy cache, have discovered that changes in the authentication scheme are not handled properly when given certain request sequences while NTLM authentication is in place, which may cause the daemon to restart.

The old stable distribution (woody) is not affected by this problem.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 2.5.9-10sarge2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 2.5.10-6.

We recommend that you upgrade your squid packages.
