Description

This security bulletin contains information about 16 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) Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32051)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper error handling within the soup_uri_decode_data_uri() function when processing a malformed URI. A remote attacker can trick the victim into clicking on a specially crafted link and crash the application.


4) 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.

5) 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.


6) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32906)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in soup_headers_parse_request() 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) 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.


8) Interpretation Conflict (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32908)

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

The vulnerability exists due to HTTP/2 server in libsoup may not fully validate the values of pseudo-headers :scheme, :authority, and :path. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


9) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32909)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the sniff_mp4() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


10) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32910)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the soup_auth_digest_authenticate() function. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website and crash the application.


11) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32911)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the soup_message_headers_get_content_disposition(). A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


12) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32912)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in SoupAuthDigest. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website and crash the application.


13) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32913)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in the soup_message_headers_get_content_disposition() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


14) 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.


15) 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.


16) 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.
