How to Fix CVE-2024-50342

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Symfony/http client 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/http-client fixed: 5.4.47
Upgrade symfony/http-client to 5.4.47
symfony/http-client fixed: 6.4.15
Upgrade symfony/http-client to 6.4.15
symfony/http-client fixed: 7.1.8
Upgrade symfony/http-client to 7.1.8
symfony/symfony fixed: 5.4.47
Upgrade symfony/symfony to 5.4.47
symfony/symfony fixed: 6.4.15
Upgrade symfony/symfony to 6.4.15
symfony/symfony fixed: 7.1.8
Upgrade symfony/symfony to 7.1.8
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/http-client

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2024-50342, inspect your project dependencies for Symfony/http client:

inspect dependencies for symfony/http-client

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Symfony/http client in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 5.4.47), 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-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor, where the product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information. In Symfony/http client, 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 When using the `NoPrivateNetworkHttpClient`, some internal information is still leaking during host resolution, which leads to possible IP/port enumeration. ### Resolution The `NoPrivateNetworkHttpClient` now filters blocked IPs earlier to prevent such leaks. The fisrt patch for this issue is available [here](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/commit/296d4b34a33b1a6ca5475c6040b3203622520f5b) for branch 5.4. The second one is available [here](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/commit/b4bf5afdbdcb2fd03da513ee03beeabeb551e5fa) for branch 5.4 also. ### Credits We would like to thank Linus Karlsson and Chris Smith for reporting the issue and Nicolas Grekas for providing the fix.
