Description Srikanth Balasubramanian 2026-09-29 16:47:09 UTC
Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

A heap buffer overflow was found in libsoup's WebSocket permessage-deflate outgoing path.

soup_websocket_extension_deflate_process_outgoing_message() stored deflateBound()'s uLong result in a guint and grew a GByteArray by that amount. For payloads approaching 4 GiB, the bound exceeds G_MAXUINT; truncation allowed buffer->len + max_length to wrap on later growth, and zlib wrote through next_out past the allocation.

Fixed by refusing payloads whose compressed bound cannot fit in a GByteArray and by checking each incremental growth (commit dbd0417e, libsoup 3.7.3).

Comment 1 Adrian Vovk 2026-10-27 00:51:23 UTC
rawhide and f45 will be fixed by upgrading to 3.8 w/ mclazy

f44 and f43 will need a backport of the commit
