Red Hat libsoup.: out-of-bounds read

High8.6CVE-2026-102557 · Published Sep 29, 2026 · updated Sep 30, 2026

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.
