Source Advisory Statement

### Overview In applications built with the Auth0-PHP SDK, the Bulk User Import endpoint does not validate the file path wrapper or value. Without proper validation, affected applications may accept arbitrary file paths or URLs. ### Am I affected? You are affected by this vulnerability if you meet the following preconditions: 1. Applications using the Auth0-PHP SDK, versions between v3.3.0 and v8.16.0, or 2. Applications using the following SDKs that rely on the Auth0-PHP SDK versions between v3.3.0 and v8.16.0: a. Auth0/symfony, b. Auth0/laravel-auth0, c.
