CVE-2025-32050 [MEDIUM] libsoup vulnerabilities
Title: libsoup vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in libsoup.
It was discovered that libsoup did not correctly handle memory while
performing UTF-8 conversions. An attacker could possibly use this issue
to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. This issue only
affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-52531)
It was discovered that libsoup could enter an infinite loop when reading
certain websocket data. An attacker could possibly use this issue to
cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
(CVE-2024-52532)
It was discovered that libsoup could be made to read out of bounds. An
attacker could possibly use this issue to cause applications using
libsoup to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2025-2784,

FAQ: Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?
One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If impact to additional products is identified, we will update the CVE to reflect this.

libsoup: infinite loop while reading websocket data

CVE-2024-52532 [HIGH] CWE-835 libsoup: infinite loop while reading websocket data
libsoup: infinite loop while reading websocket data
GNOME libsoup before 3.6.1 has an infinite loop, and memory consumption. during the reading of certain patterns of WebSocket data from clients.
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.
