<http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-31808>
__________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Due to an incorrect input validation bug Squid is vulnerable to
a Denial of Service attack against all clients using the proxy.
Due to an incorrect memory management bug Squid is vulnerable to
a Denial of Service attack against all clients using the proxy.
Due to an integer overflow bug Squid is vulnerable to a Denial
of Service attack against all clients using the proxy.
__________________________________________________________________
Severity:
These problems all allow a trusted client to perform Denial of
Service when making HTTP Range requests.
The integer overflow problem allows a remote server to perform
Denial of Service when delivering responses to HTTP Range
requests. The issue trigger is a header which can be expected to
exist in HTTP traffic without any malicious intent.
CVSS Score of 8.0
