Description

This security bulletin contains information about 8 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Buffer Over-read (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-2784)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the skip_insignificant_whitespace() function when reading server HTTP response. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website and read 1 byte out of bounds.


2) Buffer Over-read (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32050)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the append_param_quoted() function when handling server HTTP response. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website and read parts of the heap memory.

3) Buffer Over-read (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32052)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the sniff_unknown() function when handling server HTTP response. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website and read parts of the heap memory.

4) Buffer Over-read (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32053)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the sniff_feed_or_html() and skip_insignificant_space() functions when parsing server HTTP response. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website and read parts of the heap memory.


5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32907)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when handling HTTP requests. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


6) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32914)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the soup_multipart_new_from_message() function. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.


7) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-46420)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DoS attack on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due memory leak within the soup_header_parse_quality_list() function. A remote attacker can force the application to leak memory and perform denial of service attack.


8) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-46421)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to libsoup includes authorization headers into requests when handling HTTP redirects. A remote attacker can gain access to credentials intended for a different website.
