Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
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, the Mailjet mailer bridge and LOX24 notifier bridge webhook parsers received configured webhook secrets but did not verify them, allowing unauthenticated POST requests to inject forged Mailjet and LOX24 event payloads. This issue is fixed in versions 6.4.40, 7.4.12, and 8.0.12.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The Mailjet mailer bridge and LOX24 notifier bridge in Symfony receive webhook secrets in their configuration but fail to perform any signature verification on incoming webhook payloads, allowing unauthenticated attackers to send forged event data via POST requests.

MitigationUpgrade Symfony to versions 6.4.40, 7.4.12, or 8.0.12 which implement proper webhook signature validation.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Determine installed Symfony version
    Run `composer show symfony/framework-bundle 2>/dev/null | grep versions` or check your composer.lock for the symfony/* packages version
    Affected if Version is >= 6.4.0 and < 6.4.40, OR >= 7.0.0 and < 7.4.12, OR >= 8.0.0 and < 8.0.12
  2. Check for Mailjet mailer bridge usage
    Run `composer show | grep -i mailjet` or search for 'mailjet' in your composer.json and config files
    Affected if The Mailjet mailer bridge package is installed and configured
  3. Check for LOX24 notifier bridge usage
    Run `composer show | grep -i lox24` or search for 'lox24' in your composer.json and config files
    Affected if The LOX24 notifier bridge package is installed and configured
  4. Inspect webhook configuration for affected bridges
    Check your Symfony configuration files (.yaml or .php in config/packages/) for any mailer_dsn or notifier_dsn using mailjet or lox24, and verify if a webhook_secret parameter is defined
    Affected if Either bridge is configured with a webhook_secret but signature validation is not being performed (the vulnerability exists when secrets are present but unused)

You are affected if your Symfony version falls within the vulnerable ranges AND you have either the Mailjet mailer bridge or LOX24 notifier bridge installed with webhook secrets configured.

Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.

Check your environment

Paste your version and any relevant configuration and it will be compared against the affected criteria above. Do not include secrets or credentials.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 6.4.40 / 7.4.12 / 8.0.12 or later
Fixed in 6.4.407.4.128.0.12
Interim mitigation

Upgrade Symfony to versions 6.4.40, 7.4.12, or 8.0.12 which implement proper webhook signature validation.

Recommended fix High confidence

6.4.40 (for 6.4.x) or 7.4.12 (for 7.x) or 8.0.12 (for 8.0.x)

  1. Identify the current Symfony version by running 'composer show symfony/symfony' or inspecting your composer.lock file
  2. For Symfony 6.4.x (versions 6.4.0 to 6.4.39): Run 'composer require symfony/symfony:6.4.40 --no-interaction' to upgrade to the fixed version
  3. For Symfony 7.0.x to 7.4.x (versions 7.0.0 to 7.4.11): Run 'composer require symfony/symfony:7.4.12 --no-interaction' to upgrade to the fixed version
  4. For Symfony 8.0.x (versions 8.0.0 to 8.0.11): Run 'composer require symfony/symfony:8.0.12 --no-interaction' to upgrade to the fixed version
  5. Run 'composer update symfony/symfony' to apply the changes
  6. Clear the Symfony cache with 'php bin/console cache:clear'
  7. Test the application thoroughly, specifically verifying Mailjet mailer bridge and LOX24 notifier webhook functionality
Caveat Review Symfony's UPGRADE.md for your version; this is a patch-level security fix with minimal breaking change risk
