Subject: Bug 2601: Hack. Convert IPv4 netmasks to CIDR in IPv6-enabled mode
X-Git-Tag: SQUID_3_2_0_1~1175
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dff9ee499065287c1c9e50c8b011660592bdf77d;p=thirdparty%2Fsquid.git

Bug 2601: Hack. Convert IPv4 netmasks to CIDR in IPv6-enabled mode

se bug 2601 for trace demonstrating the effect of masking an IPv6 address
with and IPv4 netmask intead of a CIDR mask.

This hack, locates what CIDR mask was _probably_ meant to be in its
native protocol format. Then resets the mask to that CIDR form.

This will completely crap out with a security fail-open if the admin is
playing mask tricks.  However, thats their fault, and we do warn loudly.
