This week, Symfony released maintenance versions 5.4.50, 6.4.29, and 7.3.7 to address a potential security vulnerability. Meanwhile, we continued polishing the upcoming Symfony 7.4 and 8.0 releases and published 7.4.0 RC1 and 8.0.0 RC1. Finally, we shared new details about several of the talks planned for SymfonyCon Amsterdam 2025.
