Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

Tinyproxy through 1.11.3 contains an access control bypass vulnerability in acl_string_processing() in src/acl.c that compares only trailing hostname characters without checking DNS label boundaries. Attackers controlling the PTR record for their source IP, such as untrusted.net, can satisfy an 'Allow trusted.net' entry to use the proxy despite deny-by-default ACLs.
