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. https://github.com/composer/composer/commit/b93fc6ca437da35ae73d667d0618749c763b67d4 https://github.com/composer/composer/commit/ee28354ca8d33c15949ad7de2ce6656ba3f68704 https://github.com/composer/composer/security/advisories/GHSA-47f6-5gq3-vx9c
