MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 5.34%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (5.34%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

An issue was discovered in Squid before 4.15 and 5.x before 5.0.6. Due to an input-validation bug, it is vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack (against all clients using the proxy). A client sends an HTTP Range request to trigger this.
