CVE-2026-66339
Publication date 24 July 2026
Last updated 6 October 2026
Ubuntu priority
Description
A flaw was found in libsoup. After a CONNECT tunnel is established through an HTTP proxy, libsoup incorrectly attaches the Proxy-Authorization header to subsequent HTTPS requests sent through that tunnel to the destination server. This allows the destination server to capture proxy credentials, leading to information disclosure.
