Comment 2 Stefan Cornelius 2020-02-13 10:26:05 UTC

Mitigation:

As a workaround, it is possible to disable support for FTP. In order to do so, remove the following line from your squid configuration file:
acl Safe_ports 21

Then add the following lines to your squid configuration file:
acl FTP proto FTP
http_access deny FTP
