CVE-2019-7659 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade Debian:unstable gsoap to version 2.8.75-1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gsoap package and not the gsoap package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.
Genivia gSOAP 2.7.x and 2.8.x before 2.8.75 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (application abort) or possibly have unspecified other impact if a server application is built with the -DWITH_COOKIES flag. This affects the C/C++ libgsoapck/libgsoapck++ and libgsoapssl/libgsoapssl++ libraries, as these are built with that flag.
