MEDIUM 5.3REMOTEUPGRADE

CVE-2026-45754 is a medium-severity flaw (CVSS 5.3) affecting symfony. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

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.

sensiolabs symfony UPGRADE

Affected: >= 6.4.0 and < 6.4.40 · >= 7.0.0 and < 7.4.12 · >= 8.0.0 and < 8.0.12

Fixed in: 6.4.40, 7.4.12, 8.0.12

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 6.4.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy symfony || rpm -q symfony || symfony --version

2. UPGRADE to 6.4.40 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade symfony

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade symfony

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 6.4.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison symfony sudo apt install symfony=<VERSION_BEFORE_6.4.0> sudo apt-mark hold symfony

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list symfony sudo dnf downgrade symfony-<VERSION_BEFORE_6.4.0> sudo dnf versionlock add symfony

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
