Echo: libsoup3: security update to 3.6.5-8

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 457756

Description

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

 - A flaw was found in SoupServer. This HTTP request smuggling vulnerability occurs because SoupServer
 improperly handles requests that combine Transfer-Encoding: chunked and Connection: keep-alive headers. A
 remote, unauthenticated client can exploit this by sending specially crafted requests, causing SoupServer
 to fail to close the connection as required by RFC 9112. This allows the attacker to smuggle additional
 requests over the persistent connection, leading to unintended request processing and potential denial-of-
 service (DoS) conditions. (CVE-2026-1760)

Solution

Update the libsoup3 library and its related packages to version 3.6.5-8 or later.
