Subject: CVE request: tinyproxy runs as an open proxy when attempting to
 restrict allowable IP ranges

A bug in tinyproxy prior to 1.8.3 would turn it into an open proxy if it
were defined with an "Allow" statement including an IP address range
(i.e. 192.168.0.0/24).

Could a CVE be assigned to this?
