Notes
Workaround
==========

To mitigate this issue,

- either disable Cache Manager access entirely if not needed, by placing the following line in squid.conf before lines containing
"allow":

http_access deny manager

- or harden Cache Manager access privileges, for example: require authentication or other access controls in http_access beyond the default IP address restriction.
