+	  <h3>Summary</h3>
+	  <p>Bypass $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword']</p>
+	  <h3>Description</h3>
+	  <p>A vulnerability was discovered where the restrictions
+	    caused by $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = false are
+	    bypassed under certain PHP versions. This can allow the
+	    login of users who have no password set even if the
+	    administrator has set $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword']
+	    to false (which is also the default).</p>
+	  <p>This behavior depends on the PHP version used (it seems
+	    PHP 5 is affected, while PHP 7.0 is not).</p>
+	  <h3>Severity</h3>
+	  <p>We consider this vulnerability to be of moderate severity.</p>
+	  <h3>Mitigation factor</h3>
+	  <p>Set a password for all users.</p>
