squid: The Squid proxy caching server.

Name:squid Vendor:Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory
Version:2.5.STABLE3 License:GPL
Release:5.3E URL:
Summary
Squid is a high-performance proxy caching server for Web clients, supporting FTP, gopher, and HTTP data objects. Unlike traditional caching software, Squid handles all requests in a single, non-blocking, I/O-driven process. Squid keeps meta data and especially hot objects cached in RAM, caches DNS lookups, supports non-blocking DNS lookups, and implements negative caching of failed requests. Squid consists of a main server program squid, a Domain Name System lookup program (dnsserver), a program for retrieving FTP data (ftpget), and some management and client tools.

- Quiet the triggerpostun scriptlet.
* Mon Mar 8 18:00:00 2004 Jay Fenlason <fenlason{%}redhat{*}com> 7:2.5.STABLE3-4.3E
- Backport security fix for %00 hole.  See CAN-2004-0189:
    The "%xx" URL decoding function in Squid 2.5STABLE4 and earlier allows
    remote attackers to bypass url_regex ACLs via a URL with a NULL
    ("%00") characterm, which causes Squid to use only a portion of the
    requested URL when comparing it against the access control lists.
- Backport security fix that adds urllogin acl type that can be used to
  protect vulnerable Microsoft Internet Explorer clients.
* Wed Sep 17 19:00:00 2003 Jeremy Katz <katzj{%}redhat{*}com> 7:2.5.STABLE3-3.3E
- always exit successfully from scriptlets
- change from notting to make trigger "safer" (#101634)
