[Security] Custom Authenticator: What does "validate no parameter is empty" mean? #19812

@wouterj You were the last one who edited the code block at https://symfony.com/doc/current/security/custom_authenticator.html#passport-badges in this commit: 01cb2b0

What does "validate no parameter is empty" mean there?

  1. Why should I do that? If there's no password given, it's treated as wrong password, so that looks OK for me.
  2. How should I do that? If the password is indeed '', I still need to return a Passport. So (except from throwing an exception), there's nothing much I could do about it (especially can't generate a form error message), right?
  3. Why is the comment shown in a code sample about CSRF?

    For instance, if you want to add CSRF to your custom authenticator, you would initialize the passport like this:

=> So I'd say either just delete it, or give a more complete idea of what to do:

if ('' === $password) {
    // ... ?
}
