Description
A global buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the soup_header_name_to_string function in Libsoup. The soup_header_name_to_string function does not validate the name parameter passed in, and directly accesses soup_header_name_strings[name]. The value of name is controllable, when name exceeds the index range of soup_headr_name_string, it will cause an out-of-bounds access.
