Comment (by timgraham):
According to
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/topics/auth/passwords/#django.contrib.auth.password_validation.UserAttributeSimilarityValidator
the UserAttributeSimilarityValidator documentation], "Attributes that
don’t exist are ignored"
([https://github.com/django/django/blob/081fdaf110386db940d834ba51d93e23aa293fcd/django/contrib/auth/password_validation.py#L141-L143
code]).
Is `User.username` returning some non-empty value on your custom user
model?
