Details:

This directives limits the header size of a received HTTP response
(including status-line). Increasing this limit beyond its 64 KB default
exposes certain old Squid code to various denial-of-service attacks. This
limit also applies to FTP command responses.

Squid also checks this limit when loading hit responses from disk cache.

Squid does not check this limit when sending responses.
