Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test

The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2005:104 (squid).



A bug was found in the way that Squid handles DNS replies. If the port Squid
uses for DNS requests is not protected by a firewall, it is possible for a
remote attacker to spoof DNS replies, possibly redirecting a user to spoofed or
malicious content.
