Summary
CVE-2023-43655 is a remote code execution vulnerability affecting Composer, a popular PHP dependency manager. This issue arises when a user publishes a composer.phar file to a publicly accessible web server, allowing it to be executed as a PHP file, and if PHP's `register_argc_argv` is enabled in php.ini. Versions 2.6.4, 2.2.22, and 1.10.27 are patched against this vulnerability. Users unable to upgrade should disable `register_argc_argv` in php.ini and avoid publishing composer.phar files to the web, which is not considered a best practice.
