Synopsis
========
A vulnerability in Symfony may allow remote attackers to read arbitrary
files.
Background
==========
Symfony is a professional, open-source PHP5 web development framework.
Affected packages
=================
——————————————————————-
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
——————————————————————-
1 dev-php/symfony < 1.4.20 Vulnerable!
——————————————————————-
NOTE: Certain packages are still vulnerable. Users should migrate
to another package if one is available or wait for the
existing packages to be marked stable by their
architecture maintainers.
Description
===========
Symfony does not properly sanitize input for upload requests.
Impact
======
A remote attacker could send a specially crafted file upload request,
possibly resulting in disclosure of sensitive information.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
Gentoo has discontinued support for Symfony. We recommend that users
unmerge Symfony:
# emerge –unmerge “dev-php/symfony”
