CVE-2026-55878 PUBLISHED

Symfony: Path Traversal in symfony/ux-toolkit Allows Arbitrary File Write and Read via Crafted Recipe Manifest

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 17.06.2026 Published: 08.07.2026 Updated: 09.07.2026

Symfony UX is a JavaScript ecosystem for Symfony. From 2.32.0 before 2.36.1 and from 3.0.0 before 3.2.0, the ux:install console command installs files from a recipe kit by copying paths listed in a copy-files map, and because Path::isRelative() accepts paths like ../../../etc, a crafted or compromised kit can write attacker-controlled content to arbitrary locations or read local files outside the recipe directory. This issue is fixed in versions 2.36.1 and 3.2.0.
