REDHAT-BUG-2440743: Low severity Gnome libsoup vulnerability
Published Feb 18, 2026
·Updated
A request smuggling vulnerability exists in libsoup's HTTP/1 header parsing logic. The soupmessageheadersappendcommon() function in libsoup/soup-message-headers.c unconditionally appends each header value without validating for duplicate or conflicting Content-Length fields. This allows an attacker to send HTTP requests containing multiple Content-Length headers with differing values.
