CVSS v3.1
Official Description
The (1) ntlm_fetch_string and (2) ntlm_get_string functions in Squid 2.5.6 and earlier, with NTLM authentication enabled, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via an NTLMSSP packet that causes a negative value to be passed to memcpy.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2004-0832 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
