Echo: libsoup3: security update to 3.6.6-1+e12

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 473740

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- A flaw was found in libsoup. When a client sends an HTTP/2 request body from a non-pollable input stream,
the library can buffer more data than the current flow-control window later allows. A malicious HTTP/2
server can shrink SETTINGS_INITIAL_WINDOW_SIZE while that buffered read is still in progress. The client
then copies the full buffer into a smaller DATA callback without a runtime bounds check, which can abort
the process or fail the HTTP/2 session. (CVE-2026-85534)

Solution

Update the libsoup3 library and its related packages to version 3.6.6-1+e12 or later.
