## Overview

Auth0-PHP is a PHP SDK for Auth0 Authentication and Management APIs. In applications built with the Auth0-PHP SDK, the audience validation in access tokens is performed improperly. Without proper validation, affected applications may accept ID tokens as Access tokens. Projects are affected if they use Auth0-PHP SDK versions between v8.0.0 and v8.17.0, or applications using the following SDKs that rely on the Auth0-PHP SDK versions between v8.0.0 and v8.17.0: Auth0/symfony versions between 5.0.0 and 5.5.0, Auth0/laravel-auth0 versions between 7.0.0 and 7.19.0, and/or Auth0/wordpress plugin versions between 5.0.0-BETA0 and 5.4.0. Auth0/Auth0-PHP version 8.18.0 contains a patch for the issue.

## Affected

- `auth0-php >= 8.0.0, < 8.18.0`
- `laravel-auth0 >= 7.0.0, < 7.20.0`
- `symfony >= 5.0.0, < 5.6.0`
- `wp-auth0 >= 5.0.0, < 5.5.0`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `auth0-php 8.18.0`
- `laravel-auth0 7.20.0`
- `symfony 5.6.0`
- `wp-auth0 5.5.0`
