Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
Symfony is a PHP framework for web and console applications and a set of reusable PHP components. The Symfony form component provides a CSRF protection mechanism by using a random token injected in the form and using the session to store and control the token submitted by the user. When using the FrameworkBundle, this protection can be enabled or disabled with the configuration. If the configuration is not specified, by default, the mechanism is enabled as long as the session is enabled. In a recent change in the way the configuration is loaded, the default behavior has been dropped and, as a result, the CSRF protection is not enabled in form when not explicitly enabled, which makes the application sensible to CSRF attacks. This issue has been resolved in the patch versions listed and users are advised to update. There are no known workarounds for this issue.

SQL Injection
In Symfony HTTP Methods provided as verbs or using the override header may be treated as trusted input, but they are not validated, possibly causing SQL injection or XSS.

Cross-site Scripting
In Symfony, validation messages are not escaped, which can lead to XSS when user input is included.

Symfony's incorrect argument escaping under MSYS2/Git Bash can lead to destructive file operations on Windows
The Symfony Process component did not correctly treat some characters (notably `=`) as “special” when escaping arguments on Windows. When PHP is executed from an MSYS2-based environment (e.g. Git Bash) and Symfony Process spawns native Windows executables, MSYS2’s argument/path conversion can mishandle unquoted arguments containing these characters.

This can cause the spawned process to receive corrupted/truncated arguments compared to what Symfony intended.
