Description
Description
Twig\Profiler\Dumper\HtmlDumper writes Profile::getTemplate() and Profile::getName() straight into its HTML output without escaping:
protected function formatTemplate(Profile $profile, $prefix): string
{
return \sprintf('%s└ <span style="background-color: %s">%s</span>', $prefix, self::$colors['template'], $profile->getTemplate());
}
The template name comes from the loader (the array key for ArrayLoader, a row id for a database-backed loader, etc.). When that name is attacker-controlled, the profiler dump emits arbitrary HTML, and any browser that renders it executes the injected markup. This is an output-encoding bug in profiler/debug tooling, not a sandbox escape.
Resolution
HtmlDumper now runs both Profile::getTemplate() and Profile::getName() through htmlspecialchars() before inserting them into the HTML output.
Credits
Twig would like to thank El Kharoubi Iosif for reporting the issue and Nicolas Grekas for fixing it.

Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for twig/twig, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update twig/twig to 3.26.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-47730 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Escape or sanitise the affected output on the server side rather than relying on client-side filtering, and add a Content-Security-Policy that blocks inline script execution so injected markup cannot run even if it reaches the page.
