[squid-announce] Squid 3.2.14 is available

[Amos Jeffries]

The Squid HTTP Proxy team is very pleased to announce the availability
of the Squid-3.2.14 release!


This release is a security fix release resolving a vulnerability found
in the prior 3.2 releases.

    REMINDER: This and older releases are already deprecated by
              Squid-3.3 availablility.


The major changes to be aware of:


* CVE-2015-3455 : SQUID-2015:1 Incorrect X509 server certificate valdidation

  http://www.squid-cache.org/Advisories/SQUID-2015_1.txt

The bug is important because it allows remote servers to bypass client
certificate validation. Some attackers may also be able to use valid
certificates for one domain signed by a global Certificate Authority to
abuse an unrelated domain.

However, the bug is exploitable only if you have configured Squid to
perform SSL Bumping with the "client-first" mode of operation.

Sites that do not use SSL-Bump are not vulnerable.

A squid.conf workaround is available for quick use and those unable to
upgrade. See the Advisory notice for details.



 All users are urged to upgrade as soon as possible.

 See the ChangeLog for the full list of changes in this and earlier
 releases.

Please remember to run "squid -k parse" when testing upgrade to a new
version of Squid. It will audit your configuration files and report
any identifiable issues the new release will have in your installation
before you "press go".


Please refer to the release notes at
http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.2/RELEASENOTES.html
when you are ready to make the switch to Squid-3.2

Upgrade tip:
  "squid -k parse" is starting to display even more
   useful hints about squid.conf changes.
