Hello,

I found a Denial of Service Server Crash bug with Cache Manager under
Squid. When a session under the cache manager expires or if the
squid service crashed and restarted before, during, and after
refreshing the general information about the cache, the server will
hard crash and reboot.

this needs to be isolated or set an expire page. Another solution is
to create an active session timeout similar to ASP pages where the
username and password are not displayed in the URL.
