Description Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2009-03-04 18:48:07 UTC 
CVE-2009-0804 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-0804):
  Ziproxy 2.6.0, when transparent interception mode is enabled, uses
  the HTTP Host header to determine the remote endpoint, which allows
  remote attackers to bypass access controls for Flash, Java,
  Silverlight, and probably other technologies, and possibly
  communicate with restricted intranet sites, via a crafted web page
  that causes a client to send HTTP requests with a modified Host
  header.

http://ziproxy.sourceforge.net/ says:

Ziproxy 2.6.9_BETA released.

"Added provision for outgoing port restrictions.
New options: RestrictOutPortHTTP, RestrictOutPortCONNECT
This provision mitigates the transparent proxy vulnerability US-CERT VU#435052"

Should we stable the beta or wait for the next stable release?
Comment 2 Alin Năstac (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-03-06 19:39:22 UTC 
I've submitted ziproxy-2.6.9_beta to the tree. 
All supported arches have testing keywords, so there is no need to involve arch teams in this.

Looks like testing-only indeed. Closing.
