In this post, we will see how to use the NotCompromisedPassword validator which was introduced in Symfony 4.3. This validator allows us to check if a given password was publicly exposed in a data breach and is therefore compromised. We will see how to use it manually and how to offer the ability to the user to test their password with this validation.

In this post, we will review one of the most used and useful service (in fact it's a value object) provided by Symfony which is the Request service Is is part of the HttpFoundation component.

It will be interactive, that means that you will be able to change the URL used in the examples and provide your own one so you can test with different parameters. It will therefore save you manual dump() calls. 😉
