Depends on what kind of authentication. If it's basic auth, squid
will cache the object w/o the auth info. So, B would get A's object,
if the request is the same. Note: B will will get the object
regarding if the authentication is correct since squid cached the
object w/o the auth info

Note: I observed this behavior when setting u a reverse proxy w/ auth.
