Affected versions
Symfony versions >=6.4, <6.4.40, >=7.0, <7.4.12, >=8.0, <8.0.12 of the Symfony Lox24 Notifier and Symfony Mailjet Mailer components are affected by this security issue.
The issue has been fixed in Symfony 6.4.40, 7.4.12, 8.0.12.
Description
The Mailjet mailer bridge and the LOX24 SMS notifier bridge both ship webhook request parsers used to authenticate and decode the event callbacks each provider POSTs to an application's webhook endpoint. Their doParse(Request $request, #[\SensitiveParameter] string $secret) methods receive the configured webhook secret but never read it; they convert and return the payload unconditionally.
As a result, an application that wires up either webhook endpoint accepts any POST to that URL, even when a webhook secret is configured (the recommended setup). An attacker who knows the endpoint exists can submit forged event payloads, fake bounce / blocked / spam / open / click / delivery events, leading to suppression-list corruption, delivery-metrics fraud, etc.
Resolution
MailjetRequestParser::doParse() now rejects the request unless it carries the expected HTTP Basic credentials, Mailjet's webhook authentication mechanism, using a constant-time comparison. The configured webhook secret is matched against the credentials embedded in the Mailjet webhook URL as user:password (use :password when the URL has no username).
Lox24RequestParser::doParse() now rejects the request unless it carries an X-LOX24-Token HTTP header whose value matches the configured secret, using a constant-time comparison. The same token must be configured in the LOX24 dashboard under the callback settings.
When no secret is configured the behaviour is unchanged: webhook authentication remains opt-in, but it is now actually enforced once opted in.
The Mailjet patch is available here for branch 6.4.
The LOX24 patch is available here for branch 7.4 (the LOX24 bridge was introduced in 7.1 and is not present in 6.4).
