Summary
Auth0 Symfony SDK has Insufficient Entropy in Cookie Encryption
Details

Impact

In applications built with the Auth0 PHP SDK, cookies are encrypted with insufficient entropy, which may result in threat actors brute-forcing the encryption key and forging session cookies.

Am I Affected?

Consumers are affected if their application meets the following preconditions:

  • It uses the Auth0 Symfony SDK, versions between 5.0.0 and 5.7.0
  • Auth0 Symfony SDK using the Auth0-PHP SDK versions between 8.0.0 to 8.18.0.

Resolution

Upgrade Auth0/symfony-auth0 to version 5.8.0 or greater.
