What is CVE-2018-11406?

A vulnerability exists in the Security component of the Symfony framework versions prior to specified updates, where a user's session may not be invalidated upon logout. This issue arises due to the improper handling of CSRF tokens, which can be exploited if the invalidate_session option is disabled. Attackers can potentially fixate valid CSRF tokens for a user's session, posing a risk of unauthorized actions being taken on behalf of the user after logout.
