Summary

Bolt CMS renders content field values through Twig's full application-level Environment with no SandboxExtension registered anywhere in the codebase. In src/Entity/Field.php, getTwigValue calls shouldBeRenderedAsTwig, which gates rendering only on the field definition's allow_twig flag and a regex checking for , , or ; when true, the raw field value is compiled and rendered via with no sandboxing.
