Stack Overflow Vulnerability in cpp-httplib Affects C++ HTTP Library

CVE-2026-29076

What is CVE-2026-29076?

The cpp-httplib library, a single-file header-only C++ HTTP/HTTPS solution, contains a vulnerability that allows attackers to trigger uncontrolled stack growth through crafted filename* parameters in multipart Content-Disposition headers. This occurs due to the regex parsing mechanism in the library which relies on deep recursion, leading to a stack overflow and potential crash of the server process. This issue affects all versions prior to 0.37.0, which contains a fix to bolster the security against such exploits.
