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

  - A flaw was found in libsoup. The chunked transfer encoding parser uses a permissive parsing function for
    chunk sizes that silently accepts inputs violating RFC 9112, including leading whitespace, plus sign
    prefixes, and trailing invalid characters. When libsoup operates behind a strict frontend proxy, this
    parsing differential can be exploited to smuggle HTTP requests. (CVE-2026-66338)

The Rocky Linux 9.6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TuxCare ALMALINUX9.6:CLSA-2026:1787783675 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in libsoup. The chunked transfer encoding parser uses a permissive parsing function for     chunk sizes that silently accepts inputs violating RFC 9112, including leading whitespace, plus sign     prefixes, and trailing invalid characters. When libsoup operates behind a strict frontend proxy, this     parsing differential can be exploited to smuggle HTTP requests. (CVE-2026-66338)

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

The CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TuxCare CENTOS7:CLSA-2026:1787751026 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in libsoup. The chunked transfer encoding parser uses a permissive parsing function for     chunk sizes that silently accepts inputs violating RFC 9112, including leading whitespace, plus sign     prefixes, and trailing invalid characters. When libsoup operates behind a strict frontend proxy, this     parsing differential can be exploited to smuggle HTTP requests. (CVE-2026-66338)

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

The version of libsoup installed on the remote host is prior to 2.56.0-6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2026-3970 advisory.

    OOB Read via Integer Overflow on libsoup through libsoup/websocket/soup-websocket-connection.c via     process_frame() leads to Undefined Behavior (CVE-2026-0716)

    The fix for CVE-2026-0716 (commit 6ff7ef0, libsoup 3.6.6) placed the integer overflow guard inside the if     (masked) block, leaving unmasked server-to-client frames unprotected. A malicious WebSocket server can     send a crafted unmasked frame with a payload length near UINT64_MAX to trigger an OOB read in a libsoup-     based client when max_incoming_payload_size is set to 0. (CVE-2026-12478)

    SoupAuthManager caches proxy authentication credentials without scoping them to the proxy authority     (host:port). When the proxy configuration changes (e.g., via system settings or WPAD), cached Proxy-     Authorization headers from the previous proxy are sent to the new proxy, leaking credentials.
    (CVE-2026-12547)

    A heap out-of-bounds read flaw was found in libsoup. When parsing multipart HTTP messages, an integer type     mismatch between the caller and soup_headers_parse() can cause the length parameter to be incorrectly     truncated, leading to a heap buffer over-read. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash an     application using libsoup or potentially disclose heap memory contents. (CVE-2026-12548)

    The fix for CVE-2026-2443 was regressed by a subsequent rework commit that replaced specific overflow     checks with a general signed comparison. When a client sends a Range request with a suffix length     exceeding the content size, the resulting negative start value is not properly clamped, leading to     malformed HTTP 206 responses and log flooding. (CVE-2026-12549)

    A flaw was found in libsoup. An unsigned integer underflow in the soup_filter_input_stream_read_until()     function causes a heap buffer over-read when parsing multipart HTTP responses. A malicious HTTP server can     exploit this by sending a crafted multipart response, potentially causing the client application to crash     or disclose sensitive heap memory. (CVE-2026-66337)

    A flaw was found in libsoup. The chunked transfer encoding parser uses a permissive parsing function for     chunk sizes that silently accepts inputs violating RFC 9112, including leading whitespace, plus sign     prefixes, and trailing invalid characters. When libsoup operates behind a strict frontend proxy, this     parsing differential can be exploited to smuggle HTTP requests. (CVE-2026-66338)

    A flaw was found in libsoup. After a CONNECT tunnel is established through an HTTP proxy, libsoup     incorrectly attaches the Proxy-Authorization header to subsequent HTTPS requests sent through that tunnel     to the destination server. This allows the destination server to capture proxy credentials, leading to     information disclosure. (CVE-2026-66339)

    A flaw was found in libsoup's SoupServer HTTP Range header processing. The sort_ranges() comparator in     soup-message-headers.c truncates a 64-bit subtraction result to 32-bit int, flipping the sign for range     offsets differing by more than INT_MAX. This causes silent omission of requested byte ranges from HTTP 206     Partial Content responses on resources larger than approximately 2 GB. (CVE-2026-77014)

    An algorithmic complexity flaw exists in libsoup's HTTP Range header processing that persists after the     CVE-2025-32907 fix.

    CVE-2025-32907 addressed memory amplification when a client repeated the same range many times in a single     Range header. Commit 9bb92f7a corrected merge correctness in soup_message_headers_get_ranges_internal() in     libsoup/soup-message-headers.c, but the coalescing loop still removes merged ranges using     g_array_remove_index() for each coalesced element. Because GArray is contiguous, each mid-array removal     performs an O(N) memmove. When many identical satisfiable ranges are supplied (for example bytes=0-0     repeated thousands of times), the loop performs O(N2) work coalescing them into a single range.

    The vulnerable path is reachable server-side from handle_partial_get() in libsoup/server/http1/soup-     server-message-io-http1.c when a SoupServer handler returns HTTP 200 with a non-empty body. No     authentication is required. The number of ranges is bounded only by the maximum request header size (~100     KiB), allowing roughly 25,000 ranges per request. Reporter measurements on libsoup HEAD containing the     CVE-2025-32907 fix show ~90 ms single-core CPU per such request at the wire maximum, blocking the server's     event loop for that duration.

    This is a CPU exhaustion / availability issue only. No memory corruption or information disclosure occurs.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - A flaw was found in libsoup. The chunked transfer encoding parser uses a permissive parsing function for     chunk sizes that silently accepts inputs violating RFC 9112, including leading whitespace, plus sign     prefixes, and trailing invalid characters. When libsoup operates behind a strict frontend proxy, this     parsing differential can be exploited to smuggle HTTP requests. (CVE-2026-66338)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2026-3212 advisory.

    A flaw was found in libsoup. When handling an incoming WebSocket Pong frame, SoupWebsocketConnection     emitted the ::pong signal with a GByteArray pointer even though the signal is declared to pass a GBytes.
    Applications connecting a handler that follows the documented GBytes API can trigger heap corruption or a     crash upon receiving a crafted Pong. (CVE-2026-102556)

    A flaw was found in libsoup. When reassembling fragmented WebSocket messages into a GByteArray, libsoup     did not adequately cap total message size against the limits of the underlying buffer type. A remote peer     could send fragments that caused size truncation while the implementation still used the full length,     leading to heap corruption or a crash. (CVE-2026-102557)

    A flaw was found in libsoup. When max-incoming-payload-size is unlimited (0), SoupWebsocketConnection     could grow its incoming GByteArray based on an attacker-controlled frame length until the length wrapped,     causing a heap buffer overflow while reading frame data. (CVE-2026-102558)

    A flaw was found in libsoup. When constructing a masked WebSocket client frame for a very large outgoing     payload, size values passed to GByteArray allocation APIs could be truncated while the masking routine     still used the full length, causing a heap buffer overflow. (CVE-2026-102559)

    A flaw was found in libsoup. When the permessage-deflate WebSocket extension compresses a very large     outgoing message, truncated size calculations used for GByteArray growth could wrap, causing zlib to write     past the allocated buffer and resulting in a heap buffer overflow. (CVE-2026-102560)

    A flaw was found in SoupServer (libsoup). When an HTTP/1.x client sends a request with Expect:
    100-continue and a request body, and SoupServer returns an early final (non-1xx) response before the body     is read, the server neither drains the declared body bytes nor closes the connection. On a keep-alive     connection, those leftover bytes are interpreted as a subsequent HTTP request. A remote, unauthenticated     attacker can place a complete HTTP request in the body and cause SoupServer to process that smuggled     request, leading to unintended request handling. (CVE-2026-103399)

    An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in libsoup's multipart processing subsystem. The flaw exists     in the soup_multipart_input_stream_read_headers() function inside soup-multipart-input-stream.c, which     does not adequately restrict or validate the size of incoming multipart boundary strings. When processing     a crafted HTTP response containing a malformed or oversized boundary parameter, the internal stream reader     reads past the allocated buffer bounds. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this behavior to     cause a service denial (DoS) through application failure or potentially read fragments of unauthorized     memory metadata. (CVE-2026-15714)

    A flaw was found in libsoup. An unsigned integer underflow in the soup_filter_input_stream_read_until()     function causes a heap buffer over-read when parsing multipart HTTP responses.
