CVE-2020-11945

squid: improper access restriction upon Digest Authentication nonce replay could lead to remote code execution

Published Apr 23, 2020 CVSS 3.1 · 9.8 Critical EPSS 27.2% KEV · Not listed
Description
An issue was discovered in Squid before 5.0.2. A remote attacker can replay a sniffed Digest Authentication nonce to gain access to resources that are otherwise forbidden. This occurs because the attacker can overflow the nonce reference counter (a short integer). Remote code execution may occur if the pooled token credentials are freed (instead of replayed as valid credentials).
