Don't, just don't. Seriously.

The proxy gets screwed over:
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Improper_Data_Validation

Then the origin server risks getting screwed over:
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Cross-User_Defacement
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Improper_Data_Validation

Being a POST the application itself riks getting screwed over with
infinite-length input:
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Improper_Data_Validation
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Process_Control
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Unsafe_Reflection

And then side effects can echo right back out to the proxy to trigger
further rounds of nastiness at random times in the future:
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/HTTP_Response_Splitting
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Cross-User_Defacement
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Cache_Poisoning


The 411 respone is telling you that the client sending the proxy a
request message is broken. Many of the above attack side effects could
be happening in other software already as a result of this client
Squid caught out. It really, really needs to be fixed ASAP.


Now, there is a small posibility that the client is using HTTP/1.1
Transfer-Encoding Squid-2.7 does not understand. The first fix for
that is to upgrade to a HTTP/1.1 compliant Squid (which 2.7 is *not*).
