Indeed. Too many users set up Squid as an open proxy, but this does not
crash it (only make you blocked from many things and generaly a fool of
yourself)

True in the case of connection flooding. But it does not require $$$$ or
even intelligence (only if you want to hide yourself).

This issue was addressed before the advisory was published, as can be seen
in the text.

If users do not subscribe to the squid-announce list and take the
recommended actions when told it is not much we can do about it, is it?
