[squid-users] Upgrade to Squid 5.7

2022-11-14 Thread Vandita Reddy
Dear Team,

I am currently using Squid 4.10 for proxy but due to some requirements I
want to upgrade the same to Squid 5.7.

I have browsed the internet for a while for some leads but there is no
guidance provided.

Kindly help me upgrade the service. Also, please tell me if there is
vulnerability if I do not set passwords for all user accounts.

Awaiting your reply



Thanks & Regards,

Requirements depend on what Vendor(s) you are using already for OS and 
to get Squid. If they provide an upgraded version it is "just" a matter 
of installing that.


If that Vendor requires a full OS upgrade to get the new Squid and you 
want to avoid that, then building your own Squid is usually available as 
an alternative.


If you could mention the Vendor/OS you are using, we could probably 
provide some better help that the above.

In terms of security username with no password is the same as username 
with a trivial well-known password. Not secure at all.
