Hello, please help me to understand the issue of CVE-2009-0801. Description of the CVE: "Squid, when transparent interception mode is enabled, uses the HTTP Host header to determine the remote endpoint, which allows remote attackers to bypass access controls for Flash, Java, Silverlight, and probably other technologies, and possibly communicate with restricted intranet sites, via a crafted web page that causes a client to send HTTP requests with a modified Host header." Looking at source code, to mitigate this issue, effectively client_dst_passthru is enforced even when client_dst_passthru is set to off in the configuration, when a mismatch between DNS resolved addresses und original request destination address is detected. I do not really understand how a possible attack could look like, could you provide an example? Many thanks!
