Last modified

CVE-2026-49981 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.2/10 on the CVSS scale. Twig is a template language for PHP. Prior to 3.27.0, the per-template filter, tag, and function allow-list verdict is computed when a Template instance is constructed and can remain cached after sandbox state changes between renders, allowing a later sandboxed render to reuse a template that was originally checked with a different or empty policy. EPSS estimates a 0.36% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
