This week, Symfony development activity focused on fixing bugs on existing branches: we provided a workaround for a parse_url() bug, updated the wcswidth data in the String component to Unicode 16, and updated ICU data to version 75.1. In addition, we published a security release to solve a potential Twig sandbox bypass. Finally, we published the full schedule of the SymfonyCon Vienna 2024 conference.
