low Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 442421

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Symfony is a PHP framework for web and console applications and a set of reusable PHP components. From
 6.4.24 until 6.4.40, 7.4.12, and 8.0.12, the development profiler file_excerpt Twig filter escapes PHP
 files through highlight_string() but interpolates lines from non-PHP files directly into <code> elements,
 allowing stored XSS against a developer who opens an attacker-written file such as var/log/dev.log in the
 profiler. This issue is fixed in versions 6.4.40, 7.4.12, and 8.0.12. (CVE-2026-45072)

Solution

Update the symfony/symfony library and its related packages to version 6.4.40 or later.
