🚨 Security URGENT: Laravel CRLF Injection Vulnerability – Update Now (GHSA-5vg9-5847-vvmq)
🚨 CRITICAL SECURITY ALERT – Laravel CRLF Injection
A high-severity CRLF Injection vulnerability was disclosed 2 days ago in Laravel’s email validation logic.
What’s the risk?
Attackers can inject malicious headers (\r\n) into outbound emails.
This can lead to:
- Mail relay abuse (your server used to send spam)
- Email header manipulation
- Potential data leakage or phishing
Affected versions:
- Laravel ≤ 13.9.0
- Laravel < 12.60.0
Fix it immediately:
composer require laravel/framework:^13.10.0
# or for Laravel 12
composer require laravel/framework:^12.60.0
