Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the cookie parsing logic of the libsoup HTTP library, used in GNOME applications and other software. The vulnerability arises when processing the expiration date of cookies, where a specially crafted value can trigger an integer overflow. This may result in undefined behavior, allowing an attacker to bypass cookie expiration logic, causing persistent or unintended cookie behavior. The issue stems from improper validation of large integer inputs during date arithmetic operations within the cookie parsing routines.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-05-19 04:52:50 UTC 
Integer Overflow or Wraparound vulnerability in the cookie parsing logic of the libsoup HTTP client/server library. This issue potentially allows improper handling of cookie expiration dates due to an integer overflow when processing excessively large values. The vulnerability arises from insufficient validation in the conversion logic of cookie expiration timestamps, which can result in undefined behavior. This may enable an attacker to craft malicious cookies that never expire or behave unpredictably, impacting session management and security policies in applications relying on libsoup
