Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for pimcore/customer-management-framework-bundle, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
