CVE-2026-45063
Last modified
CVE-2026-45063 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.1/10 on the CVSS scale. Symfony is a PHP framework for web and console applications and a set of reusable PHP components. Prior to 5.4.52, 6.4.40, 7.4.12, and 8.0.12, X509Authenticator extracts the user identifier from $_SERVER['SSL_CLIENT_S_DN'] with an unanchored regex that matches emailAddress= anywhere in the distinguished name, allowing an attacker with a trusted certificate containing emailAddress=victim inside another RDN value such as CN to authenticate as the victim. EPSS estimates a 0.34% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
