[squid-users] [squid-announce] Squid 3.5.25 is available

[Amos Jeffries]

The Squid HTTP Proxy team is very pleased to announce the availability
of the Squid-3.5.25 release!


This release is a bug fix release resolving several issues found in the
prior Squid releases.


The major changes to be aware of:

* Bug 4508: Host forgery stalls intercepted being-spliced connections.

This bug shows up as SSL-Bumped connections being stuck in various TCP
open or half-open states and not closing until the TCP timeouts are reached.

Note, there are still other issues leading to the same behaviour and not
necessarily SSL-Bump related. This release works around the most common
issues affecting recent Squid-3 releases, but some remain and a better
long-term solution will be implemented later.


* Native FTP relay: NAT and TPROXY interception fixes

FTP Native relay is now able to cope with active-mode FTP DATA
connections when intercepting FTP traffic. Previously Squid would use
incorrect IP:port details which would not work with many clients.


* Bump SSL client on [more] errors encountered before ssl_bump evaluation

This bug shows up as error responses for issues encountered early in the
TLS/SSL handling being sent to clients unencrypted when Squid should
have bumped and delivered them encrypted.



 All users of Squid-3 with SSL-Bump functionallity are encouraged to
upgrade to this release as soon as possible.

 All other users of Squid-3 are encouraged to upgrade to this release as
time permits.


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