    Dear All,
    
    I'd like to inform about a DoS bug I recently found in SQUID regarding
    handling of mkdir-only PUT requests - please look at
    http://www.squid-cache.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=233 for more info.
    From my testing, it applies both to Squid 2.3 and 2.4 series. Tested on
    RedHat 6.2 and 7.1.
    
    This bug has been fixed by SQUID developers on Sep 18 and has been known
    for about two weeks - I think its time to inform Bugtraq.
