Security controls bypass or absence In php-twig

Description

Twig has a possible sandbox bypass

Description

Under some circumstances, the sandbox security checks are not run which allows user-contributed templates to bypass the sandbox restrictions.

The security issue happens when all these conditions are met:

    The sandbox is disabled globally;

    The sandbox is enabled via a sandboxed include() function which references a template name (like included.twig) and not a Template or TemplateWrapper instance;

    The included template has been loaded before the include() call but in a non-sandbox context (possible as the sandbox has been globally disabled).

Resolution

The patch ensures that the sandbox security checks are always run at runtime.
