CVE-2016-3947
HighSummary
A heap-based buffer overflow in the Icmp6::Recv function in the pinger utility in Squid before 3.5.16 and 4.x before 4.0.8 allows remote servers to cause a denial of service or write sensitive information to log files via an ICMPv6 packet.
Risk Assessment
The organization may experience performance degradation or system failures, leading to service availability interruptions. Additionally, sensitive data may be exposed in log files.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update Squid to version 3.5.16 or 4.0.8 and to monitor logs for potential exploitation attempts.
