Description Adam Mariš 2015-11-25 10:14:56 UTC 
Two security issues in php-symfony were found:

CVE-2015-8124: Session Fixation in the "Remember Me" Login Feature

A session fixation vulnerability within the "Remember Me" login feature allows an attacker to impersonate the victim towards the web application if the session id value was previously known to the attacker.

Upstream patch:

https://github.com/fabpot/symfony/commit/f88e600833b6822db5873e25deaefd14948e4878

CVE-2015-8125: Potential Remote Timing Attack Vulnerability in Security Remember-Me Service

Several potential remote timing attack vulnerabilities were discovered in classes from the Symfony Security component (Symfony\Component\Security\Http\RememberMe\PersistentTokenBasedRememberMeServices and Symfony\Component\Security\Http\Firewall\DigestAuthenticationListener) and in the legacy CSRF implementation from the Symfony Form component (Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Csrf\CsrfProvider\DefaultCsrfProvider).
