CentOS Linux 7 [TuxCare] Security Update: libsoup / libsoup-devel Multiple Vulnerabilities (CENTOS7:CLSA-2025:1753131065)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 359579

Language:

Synopsis

The CentOS Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare CENTOS7:CLSA-2025:1753131065 advisory.

 - A flaw was found in libsoup. The package is vulnerable to a heap buffer over-read when sniffing content via the skip_insight_whitespace() function. Libsoup clients may read one byte out-of-bounds in response to a crafted HTTP response by an HTTP server. (CVE-2025-2784)

 - A flaw was found in libsoup. The libsoup append_param_quoted() function may contain an overflow bug resulting in a buffer under-read. (CVE-2025-32050)

 - A flaw was found in libsoup. A vulnerability in the sniff_unknown() function may lead to heap buffer over- read. (CVE-2025-32052)

 - A flaw was found in libsoup. A vulnerability in sniff_feed_or_html() and skip_insignificant_space() functions may lead to a heap buffer over-read. (CVE-2025-32053)

 - A flaw was found in libsoup. The implementation of HTTP range requests is vulnerable to a resource consumption attack. This flaw allows a malicious client to request the same range many times in a single HTTP request, causing the server to use large amounts of memory. This does not allow for a full denial of service. (CVE-2025-32907)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages based on the guidance in TuxCare advisory CENTOS7:CLSA-2025:1753131065.
