Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote

  • Trigger condition: a malicious Gopher server sends a response line exceeding 4096 bytes to crash Squid via buffer overflow in gopherToHTML
  • Vulnerable function is gopherToHTML in the Gopher reply parser; monitor for crashes or memory corruption in Squid daemon when proxying Gopher traffic
  • ·Vulnerability is only exploitable if Squid is configured to proxy Gopher protocol traffic; affected versions are Squid 2.5.STABLE7 and earlier
  • ·A regression of this same vulnerability (CVE-2011-3205) was later introduced in Squid 3.x branches (3.0 before 3.0.STABLE26, 3.1 before 3.1.15, 3.2 before 3.2.0.11), meaning the same detection logic applies to those versions as well
