Use of HTCP or ICP as alternative protocols can reduce that cost.\n~~~\n# Example of disabling digests for an untrusted peer.\ncache_peer untrusted.server.example.com parent 3128 3130 no-digest\n~~~\nAudit the Squid configuration and ensure that all configured cache_peer entries are under direct control and are trusted.

Also, cache digests are not enabled in the default configuration. Squid deployments that do not use cache peering are not affected. Furthermore, even those that do are only vulnerable when the attacker controls a configured peer server within the same administrative domain. A compromised peer can reliably crash the Squid process via a heap-based buffer overflow during digest exchange, but code execution faces considerable practical security barriers.\nDefault Red Hat Enterprise Linux security features, including SELinux enforcement, Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) and NX (No-Execute) stack protection, significantly increase the difficulty of achieving arbitrary code execution, limiting the impact of this vulnerability.\nDue to these reasons, this vulnerability has been rated with a moderate severity.", "threat_severity": "Moderate"}
