Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Libsoup. The soup_websocket_connection_read function uses a loop that reads incoming WebSocket data via the glib library. This issue makes it possible to cause the loop to run indefinitely by sending a continuous stream of data to it. The effect will prevent the DCV service from accepting any further connections, leading to a denial of service.
