NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream cpp-httplib package and not the cpp-httplib package as distributed by Ubuntu.

cpp-httplib is a C++11 single-file header-only cross platform HTTP/HTTPS library. Prior to 0.20.1, cpp-httplib does not have a limit for a unique line, permitting an attacker to explore this to allocate memory arbitrarily. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.20.1. NOTE: This vulnerability is related to CVE-2025-53629.
