CVE-2026-47732
Published:June 14, 2026
Updated:June 15, 2026
Description "SandboxNodeVisitor" enforces "SecurityPolicy::checkMethodAllowed()" for implicit "__toString()" calls by wrapping selected AST nodes in "CheckToStringNode". The set of wrapped nodes is incomplete, and several Twig language constructs still trigger PHP string coercion on a "Stringable" operand without first consulting the policy. A sandboxed template author can therefore invoke "__toString()" on any object reachable in the render context, even when "__toString" on its class is not allowlisted. Confirmed bypass vectors: - Conditional expressions ("a ? b : c", "a ?: b", "a ?? b") used as the input of a string-coercing filter or as a filter/function argument. - The "matches" operator and the loose comparison operators ("==", "!=", "<", ">", "<=", ">=", "<=>"), which coerce a "Stringable" operand to string and can be used as an oracle to recover the value byte by byte (no tag, filter or function needs to be allowlisted). - Twig tests in general (which were never policy-gated), in particular "is empty" which casts a "Stringable" value via "(string) $value" in "CoreExtension::testEmpty()". - Null-coalesce expressions nested in concatenation, and the direct output of allowed functions or filters that return a "Stringable" object. - Arguments passed to allowed object methods, template-name expressions of template-loading tags ("include", "extends", "use", ...), dynamic attribute/property names, and spread arguments from "Traversable" objects. - The "do" tag and the ".." range operator. Resolution The sandbox now wraps every child node that the parent will string-coerce at runtime, instead of relying on a hardcoded list of node types in "SandboxNodeVisitor". A new "Twig\Node\CoercesChildrenToStringInterface" lets nodes declare which of their children must be guarded; core nodes (concatenation, comparison and range binaries, filter/function/test expressions, "do", "include", "extends", "use", ...) implement it. Spread arguments are materialised and policy-checked via the new "SandboxExtension::ensureSpreadAllowed()", and dynamic attribute names are checked at runtime inside "CoreExtension::getAttribute()". Credits Twig would like to thank Anthropic Glasswing and El Kharoubi Iosif for reporting the issues, and Fabien Potencier for providing the fixes.
