Technical details
A vulnerability exists in Twig's deprecated internal wrappers within src/Resources/core.php. Following hardening changes in version 3.26.0, the signatures for CoreExtension::checkArrow(), arraySome(), and arrayEvery() were updated to require a boolean $isSandboxed flag. However, the legacy wrapper functions (twig_array_some, twig_array_every, and twig_check_arrow_in_sandbox) were not updated to forward this state. Consequently, these functions default to a non-sandboxed state, allowing attackers to bypass callable restrictions (such as the requirement that callables be Closures) and execute string-based callables like 'strcmp'. Additionally, twig_check_arrow_in_sandbox triggers a TypeError on PHP 8+ due to type mismatch. The issue is resolved in version 3.27.0 by ensuring these wrappers correctly resolve and forward the sandbox state.
