problems:

CVE-2008-1673

    Wei Wang from McAfee reported a potential heap overflow in the
    ASN.1 decode code that is used by the SNMP NAT and CIFS
    subsystem. Exploitation of this issue may lead to arbitrary code
    execution. This issue is not believed to be exploitable with the
    pre-built kernel images provided by Debian, but it might be an
    issue for custom images built from the Debian-provided source

[ MDKSA-2007:242 ] - Updated e2fsprogs packages fix vulnerability

           Multi Network Firewall 2.0
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Problem Description:
 
 Rafal Wojtczuk of McAfee AVERT Research found that e2fsprogs contained
 multiple integer overflows in memory allocations, based on sizes
 taken directly from filesystem information.  These flaws could result
 in heap-based overflows potentially allowing for the execution of
 arbitrary code.
 

Re: Squid URL Filtering Bypass

The only access control that the proxy server can perform is based on the CONNECT method request and the server identified in it by either IP number or FQDN and port.

You do not say what the acl is that you have asked Squid to apply but it cannot involve any examination of the Host: header of a request if the CONNECT method is used; only the far end server can see that.

The same  conclusion also applies to your other post about a vulnerability with "McAfee Web Gateway URL Filtering Bypass"

Windows Synchronization Object Vulnerabilites in Antivirus Suites

In 2009 we examined the effects of manipulating synchronization
objects in security software suites frequently found on personal
computers running Windows XP and Vista. The synchronization objects
were mutexes and events, and the security software included products
from AVG, Avast, Avira, BitDefender, BullGuard, CheckPoint, Eset,
F-Prot, F-Secure, Kaspersky, McAfee, Microsoft (Security Essentials),
Norman, Norton, Panda, PC Tools, Quick Heal, Symantec, and Trend
Micro.

The examinations revealed that nearly all suites suffered non-trivial
faults originating from both standard and administrator accounts. The
