Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to HTTP Request Smuggling due to the flawed logic in soup_filter_input_stream_read_line() function. An attacker can bypass intended access restrictions by sending specially crafted chunked HTTP requests containing lone line feed (LF) characters instead of the required carriage return and line feed (CRLF).
