NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream symfony package and not the symfony package as distributed by Ubuntu.

Symfony before 2.8.6 and 3.x before 3.0.6 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication by logging in with an empty password and valid username, which triggers an unauthenticated bind.
