I would:
1) download and extract the latest 2.5 source

2) check how squid was previously configured by running:
  #squid -v

3) configure latest source with same options
  #./configure --your_options_here

4) compile (it will detect and use your existing squid.conf - just to be ultra
careful, back up your existing squid.conf)

  #make

5) stop squid & install new version
  #squid -k shutdown
  #make install

6) start & test squid
