The fix for CVE-2026-2443 was regressed by a subsequent rework commit that replaced specific overflow checks with a general signed comparison. When a client sends a Range request with a suffix length exceeding the content size, the resulting negative start value is not properly clamped, leading to malformed HTTP 206 responses and log flooding.

No solution given by the vendor.


Workaround

To mitigate this issue, applications utilizing libsoup's WebSocket support should ensure that the `max_incoming_payload_size` is explicitly set to a non-zero value. This prevents the library from processing WebSocket frames with an unset or zero maximum payload size, which can lead to out-of-bounds reads. Consult application-specific documentation for configuring libsoup parameters.
