CVE-2019-18679 Information
Share on:Description
An issue was discovered in Squid 2.x 3.x and 4.x through 4.8. Due to incorrect data management it is vulnerable to information disclosure when processing HTTP Digest Authentication. Nonce tokens contain the raw byte value of a pointer that sits within heap memory allocation. This information reduces ASLR protections and may aid attackers isolating memory areas to target for remote code execution attacks.
