Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Regular Expression in the route URL requirements when a requirement is set as an alternation (such as _locale: 'ar|bg|...|vi|...|zh_CN'). An attacker can bypass security redirect restrictions by suppling a URL that passes any but the first and the last alternatives since they are the only ones anchored by ^ and $ in UrlGenerator constructed pattern '#^'.$req.'$#'.
