GHSA-m884-279h-32v2

Exceptions displayed in non-debug configurations in Symfony

Quick fix

GHSA-m884-279h-32v2 — symfony/error-handler: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

composer require symfony/error-handler:^4.4.4

Details

Description -----------

When `ErrorHandler` renders an exception HTML page, it uses un-escaped properties from the related Exception class to render the stacktrace. The security issue comes from the fact that the stacktraces were also displayed in non-`debug` environments.

Resolution ----------

The `ErrorHandler` class now escapes all properties coming from the related Exception, and the stacktrace is not displayed anymore in non-`debug` environments.

The patches for this issue are available [here](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/commit/cf80224589ac05402d4f72f5ddf80900ec94d5ad) and [here](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/commit/629d21b800a15dc649fb0ae9ed7cd9211e7e45db) for branch 4.4.

Credits -------

I would like to thank Luka Sikic for reporting & Yonel Ceruto and Jérémy Derussé for fixing the issue.
