Summary
Symfony has an Authentication Bypass via RememberMe
Details

Description

When consuming a persisted remember-me cookie, Symfony does not check if the username persisted in the database matches the username attached with the cookie, leading to authentication bypass.

Resolution

The PersistentRememberMeHandler class now ensures the submitted username is the cookie owner.

The patch for this issue is available here for branch 5.4.

Credits

We would like to thank Moritz Rauch - Pentryx AG for reporting the issue and Jérémy Derussé for providing the fix.
