DescriptionNVD

A flaw was found in libsoup's SoupServer. A remote attacker could exploit a use-after-free vulnerability where the soup_server_disconnect() function frees connection objects prematurely, even if a TLS handshake is still pending. If the handshake completes after the connection object has been freed, a dangling pointer is accessed, leading to a server crash and a Denial of Service.

AnalysisAI

libsoup's SoupServer contains a use-after-free vulnerability in the soup_server_disconnect() function that prematurely frees connection objects while TLS handshakes are pending, allowing remote unauthenticated attackers to trigger a server crash via denial of service when a handshake completes after memory deallocation. The vulnerability affects Red Hat Enterprise Linux versions 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, as well as Ubuntu and Debian distributions across multiple releases. …
