How to Fix CVE-2026-47212

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Symfony dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

symfony/symfony fixed: 6.4.40
Upgrade symfony/symfony to 6.4.40
symfony/symfony fixed: 7.4.12
Upgrade symfony/symfony to 7.4.12
symfony/symfony fixed: 8.0.12
Upgrade symfony/symfony to 8.0.12
symfony/twilio-notifier fixed: 6.4.40
Upgrade symfony/twilio-notifier to 6.4.40
symfony/twilio-notifier fixed: 7.4.12
Upgrade symfony/twilio-notifier to 7.4.12
symfony/twilio-notifier fixed: 8.0.12
Upgrade symfony/twilio-notifier to 8.0.12
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

inspect dependencies for symfony/symfony

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2026-47212, inspect your project dependencies for Symfony:

inspect dependencies for symfony/symfony

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Symfony in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 6.4.40), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-306: Missing Authentication for Critical Function, where the product does not perform any authentication for functionality that requires a provable user identity or consumes a significant amount of resources. In Symfony, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

### Description The Twilio SMS notifier bridge ships a webhook request parser used to authenticate and decode the status callbacks Twilio POSTs to an application's webhook endpoint. Its `doParse(Request $request, #[\SensitiveParameter] string $secret)` method receives the configured webhook secret but never reads it; it decodes and returns the payload unconditionally, ignoring the `X-Twilio-Signature` HMAC header Twilio sends with each request. As a result, an application that wires up the Twilio webhook endpoint accepts **any** POST to that URL, even when a signing secret is configured (the recommended setup). An attacker who knows the endpoint exists can submit forged status payloads, fake delivered / failed / undelivered events, leading to delivery-metrics fraud, downstream automation triggers, etc. ### Resolution `TwilioRequestParser::doParse()` now requires and verifies the `X-Twilio-Signature` header (HMAC-SHA1 over the full request URL concatenated with the alphabetically-sorted POST parameters, base64-encoded, keyed with the Twilio account auth token) before further processing, using a constant-time comparison. When no secret is configured the behaviour is unchanged: signature verification remains opt-in, but it is now actually enforced once opted in. Applications behind a TLS-terminating reverse proxy must configure `framework.trusted_proxies` and `framework.trusted_headers` so that `Request::getUri()` returns the public URL Twilio signed. The patch for this issue is available [here](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/commit/8545fb2af6c07dfb5ef0fc8d9bccf86db2c94356) for branch 6.4. ### Credits Symfony would like to thank Himanshu Anand for reporting the issue and Nicolas Grekas for providing the fix.
