Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Symfony's symfony/mime and symfony/symfony packages are affected in versions below 5.4.52, from 6.0.0 to below 6.4.40, from 7.0.0 to below 7.4.12, and from 8.0.0 to below 8.0.12. The parameter names in structured headers such as Content-Disposition are not validated, so when an application derives a parameter name from untrusted input, an attacker who can influence that name can inject extra headers into the rendered message. The fix is to upgrade to 5.4.52, 6.4.40, 7.4.12, or 8.0.12, depending on the branch in use.
