Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under General Security Weakness. In Friendsofsymfony/rest bundle, 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

Starting with FOSRestBundle 1.2 we [switched](https://github.com/FriendsOfSymfony/FOSRestBundle/pull/642/files#diff-431bc57ca9ca16332c0cff43ad45263cR37) to using [willdurand/jsonp-callback-validator](https://github.com/willdurand/JsonpCallbackValidator) for validation of JSONP callbacks. However [the change was implemented](https://github.com/FriendsOfSymfony/FOSRestBundle/pull/665) incorrectly validating the callback query param name, rather than its value. Anyone using the JSONP handler (which is off by default) together with FOSRestBundle 1.2.0 or 1.2.1 should update to FOSRestBundle [1.2.2](https://github.com/FriendsOfSymfony/FOSRestBundle/releases/tag/1.2.2).
