Session Fixation

CVE-2022-24895

High
8.8/10

Summary

Symfony is a PHP framework for web and console applications and a set of reusable PHP components. When authenticating users Symfony by default regenerates the session ID upon login, but preserves the rest of the session attributes. Because this does not clear CSRF tokens upon login, this might enable same-site attackers to bypass the CSRF protection mechanism by performing an attack similar to session fixation. This issue affects versions 2.0.0BETA1 through 4.4.49, 5.0.0-BETA1 through 5.4.19, 6.0.0-BETA1 through 6.0.19, 6.1.0-BETA1 through 6.1.11, and 6.2.0-BETA1 through 6.2.5.
