• Severity: critical (CVSS 9.8 v3.1)
• Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
• EPSS: 0.6% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days

• Weakness: CWE-693

Description

Twig is a template language for PHP. From 3.9.0 until 3.26.0, template_from_string() compiles an inner template under a synthesized __string_template__<hash> name that can fall outside a SourcePolicyInterface sandbox decision, allowing a sandboxed template that can call template_from_string and include to render an inner template without security policy enforcement. This issue is fixed in version 3.26.0.

Affected products

• twigphp Twig: from 3.9.0 before 3.26.0 — fixed in 3.26.0

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: twigphp Twig 3.26.0. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
