CVE-2025-4476
A denial-of-service vulnerability has been identified in the libsoup
HTTP client library. This flaw can be triggered when a libsoup client
receives a 401 (Unauthorized) HTTP response containing a specifically
crafted domain parameter within the WWW-Authenticate header. Processing
this malformed header can lead to a crash of the client application
using libsoup. An attacker could exploit this by setting up a malicious
HTTP server. If a user's application using the vulnerable libsoup
library connects to this malicious server, it could result in a
denial-of-service. Successful exploitation requires tricking a user's
client application into connecting to the attacker's malicious server.
