Found in base branch: develop

Vulnerability Details

Symfony is a PHP framework for web and console applications and a set of reusable PHP components. Prior to 5.4.52, 6.4.40, 7.4.12, and 8.0.12, SendmailTransport in -t mode appended recipient addresses to the sendmail command line without a -- end-of-options separator, allowing an address beginning with - to be interpreted as a sendmail command-line option instead of an address. This issue is fixed in versions 5.4.52, 6.4.40, 7.4.12, and 8.0.12.

CVE-2026-46644

Vulnerable Library - symfony/polyfill-intl-idn-v1.33.0

Symfony polyfill for intl's idn_to_ascii and idn_to_utf8 functions

    • egulias/email-validator-4.0.4
      • symfony/polyfill-intl-idn-v1.33.0 (Vulnerable Library)

Found in base branch: develop

Vulnerability Details

Symfony Polyfill backports PHP features and provides compatibility layers for extensions and functions. From 1.17.1 until 1.38.1, symfony/polyfill-intl-idn accepts xn-- labels whose Punycode payload is empty or decodes to ASCII-only code points because Idn::process() does not enforce the UTS #⁠46 revision 33 requirement that decoded ACE labels contain at least one non-ASCII code point. Originally unequal domain names can be regarded as equal, which can lead to blacklist bypassing, inconsistent URL parsing, and server-side request forgery in applications using the polyfill to canonicalise or compare hostnames. This issue is fixed in version 1.38.1.

CVE-2026-45070

Vulnerable Library - symfony/mime-v8.0.0

Allows manipulating MIME messages

Found in base branch: develop

Vulnerability Details

Symfony is a PHP framework for web and console applications and a set of reusable PHP components. Prior to 5.4.52, 6.4.40, 7.4.12, and 8.0.12, Symfony\Component\Mime\Header\ParameterizedHeader validates and encodes parameter values but emits parameter names verbatim, allowing a caller that derives a parameter name from untrusted input to include CRLF or other non-token bytes and inject additional headers into rendered structured mail headers such as Content-Type or Content-Disposition. This issue is reported as fixed in versions 5.4.52, 6.4.40, 7.4.12, and 8.0.12.

CVE-2026-45067

Vulnerable Library - symfony/mime-v8.0.0

Allows manipulating MIME messages

Vulnerability Details

Description
"Symfony\Component\Mime\Address" is the value-object every Symfony Mailer address (to/cc/bcc/from/reply-to) flows through; its constructor is documented as validating the address and throwing on invalid input, so developers treat it as a security boundary.
The constructor accepts email addresses whose local-part (the part before "@") is an RFC-5322 quoted string containing raw "\r\n" bytes — e.g. ""x\r\nBcc: attacker@evil"@⁠example.com". The stored address is later emitted verbatim into (1) the rendered message headers and (2) "SmtpTransport"'s "MAIL FROM:<...>" / "RCPT TO:<...>" protocol lines, turning the embedded CRLF into a new mail header and/or a new SMTP command.
Resolution
The "Address" constructor now rejects addresses containing line breaks.
The patch for this issue is available "here" (symfony/symfony@dc2dbd2) for branch 5.4.
Credits
We would like to thank Claude Mythos Preview (via Project Glasswing) for reporting the issue and providing the fix.
