Descriptions

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.

En la rama 2.x anterior a las versiones 2.2.24 y 2.7.7, los comandos `status`, `reinstall` y `remove` con paquetes instalados desde el código fuente a través de git que contienen nombres de ramas especialmente manipulados en el repositorio se pueden usar para ejecutar código. Los parches para este problema están disponibles en la versión 2.2.24 para 2.2 LTS o 2.7.7 para la línea principal. Como workaround, evite instalar dependencias a través de git usando `--prefer-dist` o la configuración de configuración `preferred-install: dist`.
