Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libsoup2.4' package(s) announced via the DSA-3929-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Aleksandar Nikolic of Cisco Talos discovered a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in libsoup2.4, a HTTP library implementation in C. A remote attacker can take advantage of this flaw by sending a specially crafted HTTP request to cause an application using the libsoup2.4 library to crash (denial of service), or potentially execute arbitrary code. For the oldstable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 2.48.0-1+deb8u1. For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in version 2.56.0-2+deb9u1. We recommend that you upgrade your libsoup2.4 packages. Affected Software/OS: 'libsoup2.4' package(s) on Debian 8, Debian 9. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 7.5 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
