---------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Topic:

cachemgr.cgi, the manager interface to Squid, is installed by
default in /home/httpd/cgi-bin. If a web server (such as apache)
is running, this can allow remote users to sent connect() requests
from the local machine to arbitrary hosts and ports.

2. Bug IDs fixed:

3. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 6.0, all architectures
Red Hat Linux 5.2, all architectures

4. Obsoleted by:

5. Conflicts with:

6. RPMs required:

Red Hat Linux 6.0:

Intel:
  ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.0/i386/squid-2.2.STABLE4-5.i386.rpm

Alpha:
  ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.0/alpha/squid-2.2.STABLE4-5.alpha.rpm

Sparc:

Source packages:
  ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.0/SRPMS/squid-2.2.STABLE4-5.src.rpm

Red Hat Linux 5.2:

Intel:
  ftp://updates.redhat.com/5.2/i386/squid-2.2.STABLE4-0.5.2.i386.rpm

Alpha:
  ftp://updates.redhat.com/5.2/alpha/squid-2.2.STABLE4-0.5.2.alpha.rpm

Source packages:

7. Problem description:

A remote user could enter a hostname/IP address and port
number, and the cachemgr CGI would attempt to connect to that
host and port, printing the error if it fails.

8. Solution:

For each RPM for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Uvh <filename>

where filename is the name of the RPM.

Alternatively, you can simply disable the cachemgr.cgi,
by editing your http daemons access control files or
deleting/moving the cachemgr.cgi binary.

9. Verification:
