Vulnerability in pontedilana/php-weasyprint (CVE-2026-49358)
Summary
Vulnerability in pontedilana/php-weasyprint (CVE-2026-49358). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Exploitable via realpath. Mitigation: upgrade to 2.6.0 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
PhpWeasyPrint is a PHP library allowing PDF generation from a URL or an HTML page. Prior to version 2.6.0, AbstractGenerator::$temporaryFiles is a public array, and removeTemporaryFiles() — invoked from __destruct() and from a registered shutdown function — calls unlink() on every entry without verifying that the path is contained within the temporary folder. Any code holding a reference to a generator instance can push an arbitrary path into the array and have it deleted on script shutdown. This mirrors the KnpLabs/snappy issue GHSA-87qc-37cw-84h4. PhpWeasyPrint version 2.6.0 contains a patch for the issue.
