Libsoup: out-of-bounds read in cookie date handling of libsoup http library

Published Sep 26, 2025 CVSS 3.1 · 7.5 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
A flaw was found in the cookie date handling logic of the libsoup HTTP library, widely used by GNOME and other applications for web communication. When processing cookies with specially crafted expiration dates, the library may perform an out-of-bounds memory read. This flaw could result in unintended disclosure of memory contents, potentially exposing sensitive information from the process using libsoup.
