MDKSA-2001:088: squid Vulnerability Scan
Vulnerability Scan Summary
Check for the version of the squid package
Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2001:088 (squid).
Vladimir Ivaschenko found a problem in the squid proxy server. Certain FTP
requests could cause the squid daemon to abort, making it unavailable for a few
seconds. If enough of these requests are sent in a short period of time, the
squid daemon will not restart itself.
