An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2025-62168 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2025-62168 is a critical vulnerability in Squid-Cache Squid, published on 17 Oct 2025. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2025-62168 exists.\n\nAffected product: Squid-Cache Squid. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-62168/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-62168/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-62168","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-62168/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-62168","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2025-62168","ALSA-2025:19107","ALSA-2025:20935","ALSA-2025:21002","AZL-68562","AZL-68589","CLSA-2025-1763024537","CLSA-2025-1763031041","CLSA-2025-1763124681","CLSA-2025-1763370812","CLSA-2025-1763388821","CLSA-2025-1763397982","CLSA-2025-1763413374","CLSA-2025-1763467263","CLSA-2025-1763478867","CLSA-2025-1763490076","CLSA-2025-1763543346","CLSA-2025-1763717278","CLSA-2025-1764151964","CLSA-2025-1764152160","CLSA-2025-1764281284","CLSA-2025-1764681009","CLSA-2026-1790775234","CLSA-2026-1790851347","CLSA-2026-1790852342","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-62168","DSA-6047-1","GHSA-c8cc-phh7-xmxr","MINI-jc89-wp4r-6q45","OESA-2025-2531","OESA-2025-2606","OESA-2025-2607","RHSA-2025:19107","RHSA-2025:19114","RHSA-2025:19115","RHSA-2025:19118","RHSA-2025:19167","RHSA-2025:19277","RHSA-2025:19398","RHSA-2025:19967","RHSA-2025:20935","RHSA-2025:21002","RHSA-2025:21065","RHSA-2025:21066","RHSA-2025:21090","RLSA-2025:19107","RLSA-2025:20935","RLSA-2025:21002","SUSE-SU-2025:3902-1","SUSE-SU-2025:4026-1","SUSE-SU-2025:4029-1","SUSE-SU-2025:4099-1","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-62168","USN-7845-1","openSUSE-SU-2025:15715-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Web caching proxy","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can leak HTTP authentication credentials via error handling, exposing security tokens and internal credentials used by web applications.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"squid","vendor":"squid-cache"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-550","name":"Server-generated Error Message Containing Sensitive Information"},{"id":"CWE-209","name":"Generation of Error Message Containing Sensitive Information"}],"description":"Squid is a caching proxy for the Web. In Squid versions prior to 7.2, a failure to redact HTTP authentication credentials in error handling allows information disclosure. The vulnerability allows a script to bypass browser security protections and learn the credentials a trusted client uses to authenticate. This potentially allows a remote client to identify security tokens or credentials used internally by a web application using Squid for backend load balancing. These attacks do not require Squid to be configured with HTTP authentication. The vulnerability is fixed in version 7.2. As a workaround, disable debug information in administrator mailto links generated by Squid by configuring squid.conf with email_err_data off.","ecosystems":["AlmaLinux:10","AlmaLinux:8","AlmaLinux:9","Red Hat:enterprise_linux:10.1","Red Hat:enterprise_linux:8::appstream","Red Hat:enterprise_linux:9::appstream","Red
