Public bug reported:
Many schools and businesses are using Squid as a content filter for
their internal networks.
The current squid package distributed by Ubuntu works great for this,
except that SSL gatewaying support is not enabled, creating a filtering
vulnerability: wherever possible, users can easily switch from the HTTP
to the HTTPS protocol to bypass content filtering.
The workaround is to add two switches at compile time:
--enable-ssl
--enable-ssl-crtd
As this seems to simply enable a feature, is there any reason not to
enable these?
