Package : composer
CVE ID : CVE-2024-24821
Debian Bug : 1063603
It was discovered that composer, a dependency manager for the PHP
language, processed files in the local working directory. This could
lead to local privilege escalation or malicious code execution. Due to
a technical issue this email was not sent on 2024-02-26 like it should
have.
For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed
in version 2.0.9-2+deb11u2.
For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.5.5-1+deb12u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your composer packages.
