CVE-2026-2708
A request smuggling vulnerability exists in libsoup's HTTP/1 header parsing logic.
Published Apr 23, 2026 · updated Jun 17, 2026 · gnome libsoup
A request smuggling vulnerability exists in libsoup's HTTP/1 header parsing logic. The soup_message_headers_append_common() 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.
