    composer/composer: Composer: Information disclosure of credentials via debug output

Full record on NVD

Description

Composer is a dependency Manager for the PHP language. Prior to 2.2.29 and 2.10.2, when Composer is run with -vvv debug verbosity, it could print a credential embedded in the username slot of a repository or package URL, such as a GitHub Personal Access Token in https://TOKEN@host/, to debug output because AuthHelper, Url::sanitize, and ProcessExecutor did not sanitize username-only URL credentials. This issue is fixed in versions 2.2.29 and 2.10.2.
