Improper Authentication
In Symfony, a vulnerability would allow an attacker to authenticate as a privileged user on sites with user registration and remember me login functionality enabled.

Symfony potential Cross-site Scripting vulnerabilities in CodeExtension filters
Symfony is a PHP framework for web and console applications and a set of reusable PHP components. Starting in versions 2.0.0, 5.0.0, and 6.0.0 and prior to versions 4.4.51, 5.4.31, and 6.3.8, some Twig filters in CodeExtension use `is_safe=html` but don't actually ensure their input is safe. As of versions 4.4.51, 5.4.31, and 6.3.8, Symfony now escapes the output of the affected filters.

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
By default, a user's session is invalidated when the user is logged out. This behavior can be disabled through the `invalidate_session` option. In this case, CSRF tokens were not erased during logout which allowed for CSRF token fixation.

Withdrawn Advisory: Symfony http-security has authentication bypass
## Withdrawn Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because the report is not part of a valid vulnerability. This link is maintained to preserve external references. For more information, see advisory-database/pull/5046.

## Original Description
In Symfony, a security vulnerability was identified in the FormLoginAuthenticator component, where it failed to adequately handle cases where the username or password field of a login request is empty. This flaw could lead to various security risks, including improper authentication logic handling or denial of service.

Session Fixation
A session fixation vulnerability within the `Guard` login feature may allow an attacker to impersonate a victim towards the web application if the session id value was previously known to the attacker.
