How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Ubuntu:22.04 composer.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream composer package and not the composer package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:22.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

Composer is a dependency manager for PHP. On the 2.x branch prior to versions 2.2.24 and 2.7.7, the status, reinstall and remove commands with packages installed from source via git containing specially crafted branch names in the repository can be used to execute code. Patches for this issue are available in version 2.2.24 for 2.2 LTS or 2.7.7 for mainline. As a workaround, avoid installing dependencies via git by using --prefer-dist or the preferred-install: dist config setting.
