Elevated risk52th percentile - higher than 52% of all known CVEs
Summary
A vulnerability was found in the libsoup library, where the soup_headers_parse_request() function may be vulnerable to an out-of-bounds read. This allows an attacker to crash the HTTP server using a specially crafted HTTP request.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can remotely crash the HTTP server, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS). The vulnerability can be exploited without authentication.
Recommendation
Immediately update the libsoup library to a patched version. If an update is not possible, consider temporarily restricting access to the HTTP server.
Other vulnerabilities in libsoup
See all- CVE-2025-32911Critical
A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the libsoup library, in the soup_message_headers_get_content_disposition() function. This flaw allows a malicious HTTP client to cause memory corruption in the libsoup server.
- CVE-2026-77014Medium
In libsoup, in SoupServer's HTTP Range header processing, the sort_ranges() comparator truncates a 64-bit subtraction result to 32-bit int, causing incorrect sorting for ranges on files larger than ~2 GB. This leads to omission of requested ranges in HTTP 206 Partial Content responses.
- CVE-2026-66339Medium
In libsoup, after establishing a CONNECT tunnel through an HTTP proxy, the Proxy-Authorization header is incorrectly attached to subsequent HTTPS requests sent through that tunnel to the destination server. This allows the destination server to capture proxy credentials.
- CVE-2026-66338Medium
In libsoup, the chunked transfer encoding parser uses a permissive parsing function that accepts inputs violating RFC 9112, including leading whitespace, plus sign prefixes, and trailing invalid characters. When libsoup operates behind a strict frontend proxy, this parsing differential can be exploited to smuggle HTTP requests.
- CVE-2026-66337Medium
In libsoup, an unsigned integer underflow in the soup_filter_input_stream_read_until() function causes a heap buffer over-read when parsing multipart HTTP responses. A malicious HTTP server can send a crafted response, causing the client application to crash or disclose sensitive heap memory.
- CVE-2026-12548Medium
A heap out-of-bounds read flaw was found in libsoup. When parsing multipart HTTP messages, an integer type mismatch between the caller and soup_headers_parse() can cause the length parameter to be incorrectly truncated, leading to a heap buffer over-read. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash an application using libsoup or potentially disclose heap memory contents.
- CVE-2026-15714Medium
An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in libsoup's multipart processing subsystem. The soup_multipart_input_stream_read_headers() function does not properly restrict the size of boundary strings, leading to a read past the allocated buffer. A remote unauthenticated attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service (DoS) or potentially read unauthorized memory fragments.
- CVE-2026-15713Medium
A vulnerability in libsoup's HTTP/2 implementation causes improper memory release under specific stream termination conditions, such as window exhaustion or explicit stream resets. A remote unauthenticated attacker acting as a malicious network peer can force the connection engine to allocate stream states that are subsequently leaked during cleanup. Over time, this leads to heap exhaustion and an Out-of-Memory (OOM) crash, resulting in a denial of service (DoS).
- CVE-2026-15711High
A vulnerability was found in libsoup's WebSocket frame parsing implementation. The library fails to validate length rules specified in RFC 6455 §5.5, which mandates that all WebSocket control frames (e.g., PING, PONG, CLOSE) contain a payload of 125 bytes or less. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by sending a non-compliant, oversized control frame, causing an internal processing crash and resulting in a remote denial of service (DoS) for applications utilizing libsoup WebSockets.
- CVE-2026-15709High
A flaw was found in libsoup's WebSocket implementation when using the permessage-deflate extension. The decompression loop processes data in chunks without enforcing an upper boundary limit on the output buffer size, allowing unbounded memory allocation. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can send a small, highly compressed payload (decompression bomb), causing an Out-of-Memory (OOM) crash and Denial of Service (DoS).
Original NVD description (English source)
A flaw was found in libsoup, where the soup_headers_parse_request() function may be vulnerable to an out-of-bound read. This flaw allows a malicious user to use a specially crafted HTTP request to crash the HTTP server.
