Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2012-11-27 12:18:15 UTC
From https://secunia.com/advisories/51372/ :

Description
A vulnerability has been reported in Symfony, which can be exploited by malicious people to 
disclose certain sensitive information.

Certain unspecified input is not properly verified before being used to read files. This can be 
exploited to disclose the content of arbitrary files via a specially crafted upload request.

Successful exploitation requires that a form containing a file upload field is used.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 1.4.20.


Solution
Update to version 1.4.20.
