Description

compose-lint is a Docker Compose security linter that identifies dangerous misconfigurations before deployment. In version 0.31.0, compose-lint escapes GitHub Actions workflow-command openers only after ASCII spaces and tabs, while the runner strips all leading Unicode whitespace before interpreting a line. Untrusted Compose values or repository paths beginning with Unicode whitespace followed by :: can therefore reach the text report, fix guidance, the fix dry-run diff, and stderr diagnostics as workflow commands when the package, pre-commit hook, or Docker image runs directly in CI. The GitHub Action is not affected because it disables command processing, and the flaw does not change the lint pass or fail result. This issue is fixed in version 0.32.0.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Vulnerability
  1. Detect

    Identify every host running the affected component and compare the installed build against the fixed version below — for source-built or distro-packaged software the version string, not a lockfile, is the source of truth (`dpkg -l`, `rpm -q`, or the binary's own `--version`).

  2. Remediation status

    The records we use list no fixed release for CVE-2026-125121. Check the upstream advisory for a patched version, and apply the exposure-reduction steps below in the meantime.

  3. Mitigate without a patch

    If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
