Hi, The following vulnerability was published for smarty4. CVE-2026-62992[0]: | Smarty is a template engine for PHP, facilitating the separation of | presentation (HTML/CSS) from application logic. Prior to 5.8.2 (and | 4.5.7 on the 4.x line), Security::_checkDir() does not fully resolve | symbolic links before validating that a requested path lies within a | configured secure directory. An attacker able to place or reference | a symlink within a directory Smarty treats as trusted (e.g., a | template or config directory) could use it to point outside the | intended secure directory, bypassing the containment check and | reading arbitrary files accessible to the PHP process. This issue is | fixed in versions 5.8.2 and 4.5.7. If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
