Exploitation Status

No confirmed exploitation observed yet

  • CISA assesses this as automatable — exploitation doesn’t require manual, per-target effort, which raises the odds of mass scanning and opportunistic attacks.
  • A successful exploit gives an attacker total control of the affected component, not partial access.
  • CISA’s own triage has not observed active exploitation or public proof-of-concept code for this CVE as of its last assessment.

Description

Description

CVE-2024-50340 (GHSA-x8vp-gf4q-mw5j) addressed an issue where, with register_argc_argv=On, a crafted query string let an unauthenticated GET change the kernel environment and debug flag by feeding --env/--no-debug through $_SERVER['argv']. The fix shipped in symfony/runtime 5.4.46 / 6.4.14 / 7.1.7 gated the argv read on empty($_GET) as a proxy for "is this a CLI invocation".

That proxy is unsafe: parse_str() (which builds $_GET) and the web SAPI (which builds $_SERVER['argv'] from the raw query when register_argc_argv=On) do not agree on every input, so an attacker can craft a query that leaves $_GET empty while $_SERVER['argv'] carries the attacker's flags. SymfonyRuntime::getInput() then parses them, restoring the exact primitive CVE-2024-50340 was meant to prevent.

Preconditions and impact match the original CVE: web SAPI, register_argc_argv=On, app booted through symfony/runtime; from an unauthenticated GET an attacker can flip APP_ENV and toggle APP_DEBUG.

Resolution

SymfonyRuntime now gates the argv read on isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']) rather than on empty($_GET). QUERY_STRING is the same input the SAPI uses to build argv, so the security check and the thing it protects no longer parse different sources. Worker SAPIs (FrankenPHP / RoadRunner / Swoole) keep working because the runtime constructor runs once at boot when QUERY_STRING is unset.

The patch for this issue is available here for branch 5.4.

Credits

SymfonyRuntime would like to thank 0xEr3n for reporting the issue and Nicolas Grekas for providing the fix.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for symfony/runtime, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update symfony/runtime to 5.4.52 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-47767 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
