CVE-2009-0801

NameCVE-2009-0801
DescriptionSquid, 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.

Notes

This only affects HTTP connections and only in transparent mode
Also, same origin validations in the browsers still apply and keep this mostly harmless
