PhpWeasyPrint vulnerable to SSRF and local file disclosure via the attachment option

pontedilana/php-weasyprint fetches the content of option values server-side via file_get_contents() when the value looks like a URL, without restricting the URL scheme. The attachment option of Pdf is the reachable sink: any value that passes isOptionUrl() (filter_var(…, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL)) is downloaded by the PHP process and embedded into the generated PDF. Because FILTER_VALIDATE_URL accepts http, https, ftp, file and PHP stream wrappers such as php://, an attacker who can influence the …

PhpWeasyPrint vulnerable to PHAR deserialization via output filename (CVE-2023-28115 case-insensitive bypass)

pontedilana/php-weasyprint guarded the output filename against the phar:// stream wrapper with a case-sensitive blacklist: if (0 === \strpos($filename, 'phar://')) { throw new \InvalidArgumentException('The output file cannot be a phar archive.'); } PHP stream wrappers are case-insensitive, so PHAR://, Phar://, etc. bypass the check and reach fileExists() (file_exists()) in prepareOutput(). On PHP 7 (which the library still supports — PHP 7.4+), this triggers deserialization of a crafted PHAR archive's metadata, leading …

PhpWeasyPrint vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion at shutdown via public $temporaryFiles

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, patched in snappy 1.7.2.

php-weasyprint: shell command injection via configurable WeasyPrint binary path due to inverted is_executable() guard (mirror of KnpLabs/snappy GHSA-vpr4-p6fq-85jc)

pontedilana/php-weasyprint builds the shell command for WeasyPrint by passing the binary path through escapeshellarg() first and then checking the quoted result with is_executable(). On POSIX escapeshellarg('/usr/local/bin/weasyprint') returns '/usr/local/bin/weasyprint' with the single-quote characters as part of the string, so is_executable() looks for a file whose actual name includes those quotes. That file never exists, the "safe" branch is dead code, and the raw $binary string (set via the constructor or setBinary()) …
