During the testing phase, it was discovered that restarting squid caused all files on the system to be deleted. Red Hat has fixed the bug before it could affect any users of squid. As a result, restarting squid does not cause any files on the system to be deleted. This bug was never released neither as part of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, nor as part of any upstream version of the squid packages. For more information about the bug, see the Knowledgebase Solution linked to in the References section.

Confirmed in a virtual machine. Hello, There was a bug in steam for linux that also resulted in removal all all files from the root directory due to symlink nonalignment. https://github.com/valvesoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/3671 I have not looked at any of your code but I hope that this is close to the same solution, cheers! It's reproducible, confirmed on VM. Hope it will get fixed soon so we can patch our environment. Hello, package containing this bug has never been released. Cheers, Pavel Thanks Swapna and Red Hat QE for catching this issue before the package was released. Great work! This bug has for one reason or another started to become popular on social media so for the sake of personal sanity I would like to post this here so that I can stop replying to posts about it around the internet. ############################################################## ############################################################## # NOTE ###### # At the time of this writing, RHEL 6.7 is still pre-beta and # this bug was found in an *UNRELEASED* update to squid. ############################################################## ############################################################## I would like to echo Radek Vokal's sentiments and offer thanks to the team for finding and resolving this before it was ever released. Thank you, -AdamM Also see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1102343 for where the problem was. Verified that this bug is correctly fixed in squid-3.1.23-5.el6. Note that this rpm is not publicly available at this time, and further testing will be performed on it. RHEL-6.7 release is still under testing. As you can see bugs can be everywhere and that's the reason we care a lot about testing packages before releasing them, especially in case of widely used programs like squid.
