The composer install command running inside a git/hg repository which has specially crafted branch names can lead to command injection. So this requires cloning untrusted repositories.
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.
Composer is a dependency Manager for the PHP language. In affected versions several files within the local working directory are included during the invocation of Composer and in the context of the executing user. As such, under certain conditions arbitrary code execution may lead to local privilege escalation, provide lateral user movement or malicious code execution when Composer is invoked within a directory with tampered files. All Composer CLI commands …
Composer is a dependency manager for PHP. Users publishing a composer.phar to a public web-accessible server where the composer.phar can be executed as a php file may be subject to a remote code execution vulnerability if PHP also has register_argc_argv enabled in php.ini. Versions 2.6.4, 2.2.22 and 1.10.27 patch this vulnerability. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade should make sure register_argc_argv is disabled in php.ini, and avoid …
Composer is a dependency manager for the PHP programming language. Integrators using Composer code to call VcsDriver::getFileContent can have a code injection vulnerability if the user can control the $file or $identifier argument. This leads to a vulnerability on packagist.org for example where the composer.json's readme field can be used as a vector for injecting parameters into hg/Mercurial via the $file argument, or git via the $identifier argument if you …
Composer is an open source dependency manager for the PHP language. In affected versions windows users running Composer to install untrusted dependencies are subject to command injection and should upgrade their composer version. Other OSs and WSL are not affected. The issue has been resolved in composer versions 1.10.23 and 2.1.9. There are no workarounds for this issue.
Composer is a dependency manager for PHP. URLs for Mercurial repositories in the root composer.json and package source download URLs are not sanitized correctly. Specifically crafted URL values allow code to be executed in the HgDriver if hg/Mercurial is installed on the system. The impact to Composer users directly is limited as the composer.json file is typically under their own control and source download URLs can only be supplied by …
composer is vulnerable to Cache Injection.
