[Bug 1336742] Re: Caching responses with "Vary" header

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package squid3 - 3.3.8-1ubuntu12

---------------
squid3 (3.3.8-1ubuntu12) vivid; urgency=medium

  * debian/tests/testlib_httpd.py: Use "service" command instead of upstart
    specific ones, and simplify the logic.
  * debian/tests/testlib.py, check_exe(): Check /proc/pid/exe symlink instead
    of parsing cmdline; the latter has "(squid-1)" with the init.d script, and
    it's not really what we are interested in.

Title:
  Caching responses with "Vary" header

Status in Squid Web Proxy Cache:
  Fix Released
Status in squid3 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in squid3 source package in Trusty:
  Triaged
Status in squid3 package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  See the upstream bug report for more details [1], but it seems as
  though squid in trusty isn't caching any response which includes a
  vary header [2]. The upstream bug was fixed in 3.3.12 [3].

  Steps to reproduce:
   * Setup an application returning responses with "Vary: User-Agent"
   * Add squid in front of an application server
   * Make multiple requests to squid

  Expected result:
   * Second request is a Hit

  Actual result:
   * Second (and subsequent) requests are all misses.

  Repeat without a Vary header and things are cached as expected. Note,
  I've only reproduced this with a specific setup (as in [2]), I've not
  yet reproduced with a simplified setup to be certain I'm seeing the
  upstream bug.
