For MySql 8 you can use following script:

SET GLOBAL validate_password.LENGTH = 4;
SET GLOBAL validate_password.policy = 0;
SET GLOBAL validate_password.mixed_case_count = 0;
SET GLOBAL validate_password.number_count = 0;
SET GLOBAL validate_password.special_char_count = 0;
SET GLOBAL validate_password.check_user_name = 0;
ALTER USER 'user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'pass';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
