Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in SquidClamav 5.x before 5.8 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) url, (2) virus, (3) source, or (4) user parameter to (a) clwarn.cgi, (b) clwarn.cgi.de_DE, (c) clwarn.cgi.en_EN, (d) clwarn.cgi.fr_FR, (e) clwarn.cgi.pt_BR, or (f) clwarn.cgi.ru_RU in cgi-bin/.

Security readout for executives and security teams

SquidClamav versions before 5.8 can display attacker-controlled text as active web content in warning pages. If an organization still runs this legacy proxy antivirus component, users could be exposed to browser-based attacks through crafted links or proxy warning flows. Exposure is likely limited to environments running SquidClamav 5.x before 5.8 with the clwarn.cgi warning scripts deployed under cgi-bin. Public internet exposure depends on how those CGI pages are hosted and reached through the proxy workflow. Treat this as a targeted legacy exposure cleanup item, not an emergency based on current evidence. Prioritize if SquidClamav warning pages are externally reachable, used by privileged users, or part of a broader proxy security control. Mitigation focus: Upgrade SquidClamav to version 5.8 or later where feasible.; Remove or restrict access to vulnerable warning CGI scripts if still deployed.; Check current vendor or maintainer guidance before applying compensating controls..
