CVE-2026-45069: Symfony: OidcTokenHandler Accepts JWTs Missing aud/iss/exp Claims

• Severity: critical (CVSS 9.1 v3.1)
• Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
• EPSS: 0.3% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
• Public exploit or detection template: none known
• Published: 2026-07-14 · updated 2026-07-15
• Weakness: CWE-345

Description

Symfony is a PHP framework for web and console applications and a set of reusable PHP components. Prior to 6.4.40, 7.4.12, and 8.0.12, OidcTokenHandler::verifyClaims() registered audience (aud), issuer (iss), and expiry (exp) checkers but did not pass the mandatory claims list to ClaimCheckerManager::check(), so a validly signed JWT that omitted those claims could pass verification. This issue is fixed in versions 6.4.40, 7.4.12, and 8.0.12.

Affected products

• symfony: from 6.3.0 before 6.4.40; from 7.4.0 before 7.4.12; from 8.0.0 before 8.0.12 — fixed in 6.4.40, 7.4.12, 8.0.12

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: symfony 6.4.40, 7.4.12, 8.0.12. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
