28
FAUCET Score

CVE-2013-0189 describes a denial-of-service vulnerability in cachemgr.cgi within Squid versions 3.1.x and 3.2.x, affecting products like Canonical Squid and Ubuntu Linux. This flaw, stemming from an incorrect fix for a previous CVE, allows remote attackers to consume resources via a crafted request. With a CVSS score of 5.0 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P), it indicates a network-exploitable vulnerability with low attack complexity, requiring no authentication, leading to partial availability impact. Despite a high EPSS and FAUCET Risk Score, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage.
