Roland Lezuo and Josselin Mouette have reported a vulnerability in libsoup, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service). The vulnerability is caused due to an error within the “soup_headers_parse()” function in soup-headers.c. This can be exploited to crash an application using the library by sending specially crafted HTTP requests.
