cpp-httplib is a C++ header-only HTTP/HTTPS library. In versions 0.33.0 through 0.50.0, the TLS-enabled WebSocket client frees the TLS session before closing the WebSocket that still uses it, producing a use-after-free. In WebSocketClient::shutdown_and_close the SSL object is freed and the pointer cleared, but the subsequent WebSocket close still sends a close frame through the SSL socket stream, which holds a raw copy of the now-dangling session pointer and reads from and writes to the freed memory. The same freed-then-used ordering is reachable through the client's destructor and its connect path, so ordinary teardown of a secure WebSocket connection triggers the defect. This issue is fixed in version 0.50.1.
CVE-2026-77358 is a security vulnerability that .
Reported in 2026, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For affected software, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
