Several vulnerabilities were discovered in nginx, a high performance web and reverse proxy server. Depending on the configuration, these could result in memory corruption, denial of service, injection of requests to backend servers, or bypass of client certificate authentication. CVE-2026-15176 Mapping a rewritten request URI to a filesystem path in a location using the alias directive could cause a buffer overflow. CVE-2026-93479 Evaluation of string expressions in the HTTP and stream modules could overwrite reserved buffer space, resulting in a buffer overflow. Affected operations include evaluation of variable document roots and access log paths. The affected code was introduced into the trixie package by an earlier security backport. CVE-2026-95101 Incorrect handling of fragmented unknown HTTP/3 frames could cause their contents to be treated as request body data. When proxying requests, this could allow injection of requests into a backend server or bypass of request body size limits. CVE-2026-97205 A counter tracking pending asynchronous operations could overflow, causing request memory to be freed while still in use. This use-after-free could result in memory corruption or denial of service. CVE-2026-97629 Incomplete synchronisation of TLS session ticket keys between worker processes could leave a worker using uninitialised key material. This could allow forged TLS sessions and bypass of client certificate authentication. https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-6575-1

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in Erlang/OTP, a programming language and runtime environment. These issues could result in denial of service, HTTP request smuggling, or bypass of authentication and access restrictions, including TLS server impersonation. The affected components include the HTTP client and server, SSH, TLS, ASN.1 decoding, the network driver, and URI, LDAP and SNMP parsing. The update tightens protocol validation and HTTP/SSH resource limits. Applications relying on previously permissive behavior may need adjustment. https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-6580-1

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in Varnish Cache, an HTTP accelerator, which could result in cache poisoning, authentication bypass or denial of service. CVE-2026-34475 Tom Kinnaird discovered a deficiency in the parsing of HTTP/1.1 absolute-form request targets. If the request URL is passed unchecked to a backend which accepts absolute-form URIs, a remote attacker could potentially poison the cache or bypass authentication. The issue affects requests for root URLs. CVE-2026-93894 Tristan Madani discovered a workspace buffer overflow in the .upper() and .lower() string methods of the Varnish Configuration Language. A remote attacker with knowledge of the active configuration could craft a request which exhausts the remaining workspace during case conversion, causing the worker process to crash and restart, resulting in denial of service. Exploitation depends on the configuration using these methods on attacker-controlled strings and on the applicable request size limits. https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-6584-1

The update for jq released as DSA-6416-1 introduced a regression in the loading of modules. The fix for CVE-2026-44777 registered each library before its own dependencies, so a module reached only through another module (a transitive import or include) was discarded as unreferenced and jq aborted with an assertion failure at compile time. https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-6416-2

It was discovered that an incorrect implementation of message filtering in xdg-dbus-proxy allows an attacker to bypass the intended message filtering on the D-Bus session bus by setting a reply serial number on non-reply messages. A malicious or compromised Flatpak app could achieve arbitrary code execution outside its sandbox. If other app frameworks rely on xdg-dbus-proxy in the same way that Flatpak does, then they will have an equivalent vulnerability until xdg-dbus-proxy is updated. https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-6510-1

The update for nginx released as DSA 6496-1 caused a regression in the nginx-dev package: the backported fix for CVE-2026-42533 declared two private header files, which are not shipped in nginx-dev, as dependencies of the module build, so third-party nginx modules could no longer be built against nginx-dev. Updated nginx packages are now available to correct this issue. https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-6496-2

Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in nginx, a high-performance web and reverse proxy server, which may result in denial of service, memory disclosure or potentially the execution of arbitrary code. CVE-2026-42533 A heap buffer overflow was discovered in the nginx script engine. It can be triggered when a map directive performs regular expression matching and a string expression references captures modified by the map, or when non-cacheable variables change between the script length pass and the script copy pass. CVE-2026-56434 Duplicate finalization of an HTTP subrequest can result in a use-after-free. The issue is observable in configurations using server-side includes together with proxy_pass and proxy_buffering disabled, when an upstream response causes the same subrequest to be posted twice. CVE-2026-60005 ngx_http_regex_exec() could replace the captures array without clearing r->ncaptures when the new regular expression did not match. A subsequent unnamed capture could then access uninitialised memory, resulting in memory disclosure. https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-6496-1

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in libevent, an asynchronous event notification library. The HTTP implementation (evhttp) handled Transfer-Encoding and Content-Length headers, chunked-encoding line terminators, header line folding and chunked trailers too permissively, which could allow HTTP request smuggling, header injection or access control bypass when a libevent-based server or client is combined with an HTTP proxy. Out-of-bounds memory accesses in the DNS (evdns), tagged RPC (evtag/evrpc) and buffered socket (bufferevent) code, and a use-after-free in evbuffer, could result in denial of service or potentially the execution of arbitrary code when processing untrusted input. https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-6493-1
