Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Vulnerability is triggered via crafted ESI (Edge Side Includes) responses from a remote server; monitor Squid worker process crashes (SIGSEGV/NULL pointer dereference) originating from ESI response processing in client_side_request.cc ↗
- →Attack vector requires Squid operating as a reverse proxy or performing TLS/HTTPS interception; scope detection to those deployment modes ↗
- →Crash originates specifically from ESIInclude::Start; look for segfault stack traces referencing this function in Squid crash logs ↗
- →Root cause is incorrect pointer handling in ESI response processing; due to incorrect pointer handling Squid is vulnerable to a denial of service attack when processing ESI responses ↗
- ·Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 stock squid packages are listed as Not Affected; only RHEL 7 and Fedora deployments required patching ↗
- ·Affected versions are Squid 3.x before 3.5.18 and 4.x before 4.0.10; deployments on these versions in reverse-proxy or TLS interception mode are at risk ↗

client_side_request.cc in Squid 3.x before 3.5.18 and 4.x before 4.0.10 allows remote servers to cause a denial of service (crash) via crafted Edge Side Includes (ESI) responses.
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way Squid processes ESI responses. If Squid was used as a reverse proxy or for TLS/HTTPS interception, a malicious server could use this flaw to crash the Squid worker process.
