Security Fix(es):

* It was found that the fix for CVE-2016-4051 released via SLSA-2016:1138
did not properly prevent the stack overflow in the munge_other_line()
function. A remote attacker could send specially crafted data to the Squid
proxy, which would exploit the cachemgr CGI utility, possibly triggering
execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5408)
