How to fix?

Upgrade symfony/symfony to version 2.8.52, 3.4.35, 4.2.12, 4.3.8 or higher.

Overview

symfony/symfony is a PHP framework for web applications and a set of reusable PHP components.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Timing Attack. When checking the signature of an URI (an ESI fragment URL for instance), the URISigner does not use a constant time string comparison function, resulting in a potential remote timing attack vulnerability.
