How severe is GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v?

No CVSS score has been assigned to GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v?

GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v affects the following packages: symfony/monolog-bridge (Packagist), symfony/symfony (Packagist), symfony/monolog-bridge (Packagist), symfony/monolog-bridge (Packagist), symfony/monolog-bridge (Packagist), symfony/symfony (Packagist), symfony/symfony (Packagist), symfony/symfony (Packagist). Ecosystems affected: Packagist.

How do I fix GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v?

Update symfony/monolog-bridge to 5.4.52 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v in my Packagist dependencies?

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

How do I mitigate GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Do not deserialise data from untrusted sources: where the format allows it, restrict deserialisation to an explicit allowlist of expected types, and prefer a data-only format (JSON, Protobuf) over one that can reconstruct arbitrary objects until you can upgrade.

Is GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v?

GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.7%, placing it in the 50th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v?

GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v is classified as Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CWE-502), CWE-668 (CWE-668). These weakness types describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

When was GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-m7v2-7gxm-vc2v was published on May 27, 2026 and was last updated on September 10, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Description

Symfony\Bridge\Monolog\Command\ServerLogCommand (the server:log console command) is a development-time helper that opens a TCP listener and displays log records pushed to it by the application's logging pipeline. Two unsafe defaults combine into a remotely reachable PHP object-deserialization sink:

The listener binds to 0.0.0.0:9911 by default; it accepts connections on every interface, not only loopback.
Each received frame is processed as unserialize(base64_decode($message)) without an allowed_classes allowlist, without authentication, and without any integrity check. The decoded value is then passed to displayLog(..., array $record) which assumes (without validating) that the result is an array.

Any host that can reach TCP port 9911 on a machine running server:log can therefore submit attacker-chosen serialized PHP payloads. The minimum impact is an unauthenticated denial of service (sending a non-array, e.g. serialize(new stdClass()), crashes the listener with a type error). Object injection with magic-method side effects (__wakeup() / __destruct() / etc.) is reachable before the array type-check fires; full remote code execution is environment-dependent and contingent on usable gadget chains in the autoload set of the target process.

Resolution

The server:log command no longer binds to all interfaces by default: the default --host is now 127.0.0.1:9911, requiring explicit opt-in to accept off-host traffic. Message decoding is gated by an unserialize() allowlist restricted to the Symfony\Component\VarDumper\Caster\* and Symfony\Component\VarDumper\Cloner\* classes that legitimately appear inside dumped log records; any other class is rejected and the record discarded.

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