About Sylius
Sylius hits another Host header injection, this time in the shop reset email
v1.14.21 is a security release fixing a disabled API reachable through percent-encoded paths, Host header injection in shop password reset emails when a channel has no hostname, and unpublished reviews exposed by the Shop API. It follows the September patches across 1.12, 1.13 and 1.14 for JWT audience confusion and an admin reset Host header flaw. v2.3.0-ALPHA.1, with Symfony 8, dark mode and per-channel promotions, is the latest development release in view.
