http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-12528
__________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Due to incorrect data management Squid is vulnerable to a
information disclosure when translating FTP server listings
into HTTP responses.
__________________________________________________________________
Severity:
Certain FTP server responses can result in Squid revealing
random amounts of memory content from heap.
When Squid mempools feature is enabled the leak is limited to
lines in FTP directory listings, possibly from other clients.
When mempools is disabled the information may be anything from
the heap area including information from other processes on the
machine.
