CVE-2024-35241 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade composer/composer to version 2.2.24, 2.7.7 or higher.
Overview
composer/composer is a Dependency Manager for PHP. Composer helps you declare, manage and install dependencies of PHP projects. It ensures you have the right stack everywhere.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Command Injection via the status, reinstall, and remove commands. An attacker can execute arbitrary code by exploiting specially crafted branch names in the git repository. This is only exploitable if dependencies are installed from source via git.
Workaround
This vulnerability can be mitigated by avoiding installing dependencies via git by using --prefer-dist or the preferred-install: dist config setting.
