Information disclosure via unmasked exception messages
Published Apr 3, 2025 · Updated Apr 3, 2025
Information disclosure in API Platform Core 3.2.0 through 3.2.4 allows remote attackers to read exception details in JSON errors. The Symfony ErrorListener serializes an exception message as the error-resource detail and fails to mask HTTP 500 details outside debug mode. An unauthenticated request must reach an application operation that raises a non-HTTP exception; disclosure is limited to data present in that message.
