Re: [LUG] Nasty Squid bug

[Simon Avery <digdilem@xxxxxxxxx>]

Well, somebody on a RHEL forum says that specific version wasn't released. Their comment could be interpreted to mean "within RHEL channels"

Though to be fair, it's such a dramatic issue that if other versions than the EL build contained the bug and it was in wider use, it would certainly have gotten wider attention. Wheezy's current version of squid is 2.7, below the 3.1.23 affected, and a reassuring acknowledgement to the pragmatism of using a distro with a thorough testing cycle.

Looks more like an attack does it not?
