Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated squid packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
Squid is a high-performance proxy caching server for web clients, supporting FTP, Gopher, and HTTP data objects.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Previously, when squid received exactly enough data to fill the 16KB input buffer for server response, it could fail to expand the buffer to 64 KB which would normally be expected. This resulted in squid crashing at seemingly random times. This update improves squid's memory allocation code so that the buffer can correctly expand even when completely full, which prevents these crashes. (BZ#1351313)
Users of squid are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug. After installing this update, the squid service will be restarted automatically.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
