Squid-2.5.STABLE3 released

The Squid HTTP Proxy team is pleased to announce the availability of 
the Squid-2.5.STABLE3 bugfix release.

Of the list of bugs corrected only two are classified as major issues:
 * Squid may crash while processing requests for certain domain
   names on certain platforms
 * external acl lookups does not deal well with queue overload

In addition to the two major bugs mentioned above the 2.5.STABLE3 
release also fixes many minor or cosmetic bugs discovered since the 
2.5.STABLE2 release. Please see the ChangeLog file and Release Notes 
for details.

There is no bugs classified as security related issues corrected this 
release relative to 2.5.STABLE2, but one of the the minor bugfixes 
corrects issues related to external acl access controls where users 
may occasionally be rejected access, and there is also major 
improvements in digest authentication compability with various 
browsers which should make digest authentication a viable alternative 
to Basic authentication for stronger protection of users passwords.

All users or Squid are encouraged to upgrade to Squid-2.5.STABLE3 when 
possible, but if you today are running 2.5.STABLE2 and are happy with 
the stability of the Squid-2.5.STABLE2 release there is no pressing 
needs to upgrade.

Regards
The Squid HTTP Proxy team
