Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Composer versions prior to 2.2.24 and 2.7.7

Description The issue is related to the composer install command running inside a git/hg repository with specially crafted branch names, which can lead to command injection. This requires cloning untrusted repositories.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2.2.24, update to version 2.2.24 for 2.2 LTS. For versions prior to 2.7.7, update to version 2.7.7 for mainline. As a temporary workaround, avoid cloning potentially compromised repositories.
