CVE-2026-46638 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade twig/twig to version 3.26.0 or higher.
Overview
twig/twig is a flexible, fast, and secure template language for PHP.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization via the deprecated {% sandbox %} include path. An attacker can bypass Twig sandbox restrictions by including a template that was previously loaded outside the sandbox, as the {% sandbox %}{% include %} flow does not re-invoke checkSecurity() for cached templates, allowing unrestricted use of filters, functions, and tags regardless of the configured sandbox policy.
