GHSA-89g7-22c8-3j23
Fix: symfony/ux@d24d78fGHSA-89g7-22c8-3j23 is a Improper Input Validation vulnerability in symfony/ux-live-component. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-89g7-22c8-3j23 is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
ux-live-component: Format-less date LiveProps parsed with the permissive DateTime constructor
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.
- 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
When a #[LiveProp] is typed as a DateTimeInterface and no explicit format is configured, Symfony\UX\LiveComponent\LiveComponentHydrator::hydrateObjectValue() falls back to new $className($value). The DateTime / DateTimeImmutable constructors accept relative strings such as "now", "tomorrow", or "+10 years", so a writable, format-less date prop can be pushed to an arbitrary point in time by the client. Components that rely on a date prop to gate time-based business logic can be moved past those checks by a frontend payload that no maintainer would consider a valid date.
Resolution
hydrateObjectValue() now parses format-less date props strictly with createFromFormat(DateTimeInterface::RFC3339, ...), matching the format already emitted by dehydrateObjectValue(). Normal round-trips are unaffected; only inputs that aren't valid RFC 3339 are now rejected, which is consistent with how a format-configured prop already behaved.
The patch for this issue is available here for branch 2.x (and forward-ported to 3.x).

Symfony would like to thank Pascal Cescon for reporting the issue and Hugo Alliaume for providing the fix.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for symfony/ux-live-component. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update symfony/ux-live-component to 2.36.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-89g7-22c8-3j23 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
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.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-89g7-22c8-3j23 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-89g7-22c8-3j23. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-89g7-22c8-3j23 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-89g7-22c8-3j23 across Packagist dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
