Symfony UX is a JavaScript ecosystem for Symfony. From 2.2.0 until 2.36.0 and 3.1.0, the Stimulus controller in symfony/ux-autocomplete renders AJAX response items in _createAutocompleteWithRemoteData() by interpolating the text field into HTML template literals (${item[labelField]}) rather than text, allowing attacker-controlled markup from user-supplied dropdown values to execute in the browser of any user who opens an autocomplete widget backed by the same data. This issue is fixed in versions 2.36.0 and 3.1.0.
CVE-2026-49216
This medium-severity CVE scores 5.4 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 92% 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).
