CVE-2026-3632 Details
Description
A flaw was found in libsoup, a library used by applications to send network requests. This vulnerability occurs because libsoup does not properly validate hostnames, allowing special characters to be injected into HTTP headers. A remote attacker could exploit this to perform HTTP smuggling, where they can send hidden, malicious requests alongside legitimate ones. In certain situations, this could lead to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), enabling an attacker to force the server to make unauthorized requests to other internal or external systems. The impact is low, as SoupServer is not actually used in internet infrastructure.
A vulnerability in libsoup, a library for sending network requests, allows for improper hostname validation. This flaw enables the injection of special characters into HTTP headers, which a remote attacker could exploit to perform HTTP smuggling. In this scenario, hidden malicious requests could be sent alongside legitimate ones. This vulnerability could lead to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), where an attacker tricks the server into making unauthorized requests to other systems. The impact is considered low, as the vulnerable SoupServer component is not used in critical internet infrastructure.
