Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2011-10-08 01:08:33 UTC
CVE-2010-2951 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-2951):
  dns_internal.cc in Squid 3.1.6, when IPv6 DNS resolution is not enabled,
  accesses an invalid socket during an IPv4 TCP DNS query, which allows remote
  attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit)
  via vectors that trigger an IPv4 DNS response with the TC bit set.

Accoding to http://marc.info/?l=squid-users&m=128263555724981&w=2 this was fixed in squid 3.1.7. Moving to [glsa] with the other squid bugs.
