CVE-2026-48761

CVE-2026-48761 — Symfony: HtmlSanitizer UrlAttributeSanitizer Misses URL Attributes on <object>, <applet>, <iframe>, <img> and the URL Inside <meta http-equiv="refresh"> content

Symfony is a PHP framework for web and console applications and a set of reusable PHP components. From 6.1.0 until 6.4.41, 7.4.13, and 8.0.13, UrlAttributeSanitizer::getSupportedAttributes() omitted URL-bearing attributes on <object>, <applet>, <iframe>, and <img>, and <meta http-equiv="refresh"> URLs inside content bypassed URL sanitization, allowing explicitly enabled elements or attributes to pass javascript: and similar payloads into sanitized output. This issue is fixed in versions 6.4.41, 7.4.13, and 8.0.13.
