CVE-2026-46638
Published:June 01, 2026
Updated:June 01, 2026
Description The fix for CVE-2024-45411 / GHSA-6j75-5wfj-gh66 added an explicit "$loaded->unwrap()->checkSecurity()" call in "CoreExtension::include()" so that a template already cached in "Environment::$loadedTemplates" is re-checked when included with "sandboxed = true". The deprecated but still functional "{% sandbox %}{% include ... %}{% endsandbox %}" tag path was not updated: it compiles to "enableSandbox(); yield from $this->load(...)->unwrap()->yield(...); disableSandbox();" with no "checkSecurity()" re-invocation. If the included template was loaded once outside the sandbox in the same "Environment" instance, its constructor (and therefore its compiled "checkSecurity()" call) already ran while "isSandboxed()" was "false", so the tags/filters/functions allowlist enforced by "SecurityPolicy::checkSecurity()" is never applied. An attacker who can author the included template gains access to every filter, function and tag registered in the environment, regardless of the sandbox policy. Resolution The compiled output of "{% sandbox %}{% include %}" now calls "checkSecurity()" on the loaded template, matching the behaviour of "CoreExtension::include()" with "sandboxed = true". Credits Twig would like to thank Claude Mythos Preview (via Project Glasswing) for reporting the issue and providing the fix.
