## What is CVE-2026-49215?

CVE-2026-49215 is a low-severity vulnerability in symfony ux, published on 17 Jul 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

### Official description

Symfony UX is a JavaScript ecosystem for Symfony. From 2.22.0 until 2.36.0 and 3.1.0, Symfony\UX\LiveComponent\EventListener\LiveComponentSubscriber::isLiveComponentRequest() gates #[LiveAction] invocations on Accept: application/vnd.live-component+html, but the Accept header is CORS-safelisted and cross-origin fetch() can set it without preflight, allowing forged cross-origin #[LiveAction] requests against a victim session when applications use SameSite=None, credentials: 'include', a permissive cookie policy, or a same-origin pivot. This issue is fixed in versions 2.36.0 and 3.1.0.

Weakness: CWE-352 (Cross-Site Request Forgery)
