DSA-3745 squid3 – security update

Saulius Lapinskas from Lithuanian State Social Insurance Fund Board
discovered that Squid3, a fully featured web proxy cache, does not
properly process responses to If-None-Modified HTTP conditional
requests, leading to client-specific Cookie data being leaked to other
clients. A remote attacker can take advantage of this flaw to discover
private and sensitive information about another clients browsing
session.

DSA-3744 libxml2 – security update

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in libxml2, a library providing
support to read, modify and write XML and HTML files. A remote attacker
could provide a specially crafted XML or HTML file that, when processed
by an application using libxml2, would cause a denial-of-service against
the application, or potentially, the execution of arbitrary code with
the privileges of the user running the application.
