 https_port 3127 tls-cert=/etc/squid/proxy.pem
 http_access allow all

I hope you can see that this is *not* secure in any way. Simple TLS to a
proxy only protects the in-transit bytes against spying. The proxy is an
open-proxy for any attacker to use at will, and the TLS can trivially be
MITM'd.

You still need to have security checks (http_access rules) to check
whether the client is authorized to use the proxy.
