A bug in Squid allows users to bypass certain access controls by passing a

See http://www.squid-cache.org/Advisories/SQUID-2004_1.txt for details of this old vulnerability.


Does it mean that any url containing the symbol "%" will not work with url_regex?

url_regex normalizes the URL, if not it would be trivial to bypass by just %nn encoding sensitive parts.


As a sideeffect matching % is not easy.
