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.

Information Exposure
Symfony is a PHP framework for web and console applications and a set of reusable PHP components. The ability to enumerate users was possible without relevant permissions due to different handling depending on whether the user existed or not when attempting to use the switch users functionality. We now ensure that status codes are returned whether the user exists or not if a user cannot switch to a user or if the user does not exist.
