I'm trying to block file uploads over a certain size with squid, and have everything working, except where the user connects with HTTPS. Is there a way to limit uploads based on size when it's encrypted ssl (443) traffic?
Nope. The size is not known to Squid when the traffic is encrypted. All Squid sees is that there is some kind of bidirectional traffic between the browser and the requested server.
At best an acl could be added to forcibly terminate connections after N amount of bytes have been sent in either direction, but there is no guarantee this won't incorrectly terminate connections when there is multiple request sent over the same persistent SSL connection, and imho would generally do more bad than good.
