Amazon Linux 2023 Security Advisory: ALAS2023-2026-1391
Advisory Released Date: 2026-02-05
Advisory Updated Date: 2026-02-05
Severity:
Important
Issue Overview:
A flaw in libsoup's HTTP header handling allows multiple Host: headers in a request and returns the last occurrence for server-side processing. Common front proxies often honor the first Host: header, so this mismatch can cause vhost confusion where a proxy routes a request to one backend but the backend interprets it as destined for another host. This discrepancy enables request-smuggling style attacks, cache poisoning, or bypassing host-based access controls when an attacker supplies duplicate Host headers. (CVE-2025-14523)
Affected Packages:
libsoup
Issue Correction:
