CVE-2026-45067

MEDIUMPre-NVD 6.36.3
EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This medium-severity CVE scores 6.3 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.6%, top 54% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

Description

Symfony\Component\Mime\Address is the value-object every Symfony Mailer address (to/cc/bcc/from/reply-to) flows through; its constructor is documented as validating the address and throwing on invalid input, so developers treat it as a security boundary.

The constructor accepts email addresses whose local-part (the part before @) is an RFC-5322 *quoted string* containing raw \r\n bytes — e.g. "x\r\nBcc: attacker@evil"@example.com. The stored address is later emitted verbatim into (1) the rendered message headers and (2) SmtpTransport's MAIL FROM:<...> / RCPT TO:<...> protocol lines, turning the embedded CRLF into a new mail header and/or a new SMTP command.

Resolution

The Address constructor now rejects addresses containing line breaks.

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