Summary

compose-lint, a Docker Compose security linter, is affected when used in Azure Pipelines. An attacker can remotely, without logging in, place text in a pull request that makes compose-lint output issue Azure Pipelines logging commands in the job log, though this requires a user action to occur.

Written by anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5 from the sources below. Verify against them.

Read the original description

compose-lint is a Docker Compose security linter that identifies dangerous misconfigurations before deployment. In version 0.31.0, compose-lint does not neutralize the Azure Pipelines ##vso[ logging-command opener on any output path. A pull request can place that opener in a Compose value or file name, allowing output from the package, pre-commit hook, or Docker image to issue logging commands when printed to an Azure Pipelines job log. The maintainer did not reproduce the behavior on an Azure Pipelines agent. The GitHub Action is not affected because it runs only on GitHub Actions, and releases before 0.31.0 are outside this advisory because they did not claim Azure Pipelines coverage. This issue is fixed in version 0.32.0.

Check your systems with an agent

Paste this into a coding or ops agent. It checks your systems read-only and reports a table per asset.

Check whether my systems are affected by CVE-2026-125124 (compose-lint: Text in a pull request can reach Azure Pipelines as logging commands through compose-lint 0.31.0's output), using the cve.now data below.

Rules: work read-only. Do not run exploit code, proof-of-concept scripts or scanners that send attack payloads, and do not change any configuration, package, image or deployment. Report findings only.

What cve.now has for CVE-2026-125124 (entry last updated 2026-11-10):
Affected:
- tmatens compose-lint: versions 0.31.0
Fixed versions: none listed yet.
Setup: unknown whether the bug needs a non-default feature or setting. Check the advisory.
CISA KEV: CVE-2026-125124 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-125124 only. If you also check another CVE, look up its own KEV status; never assume it from this one.

How to check:
- Installed software: check what is actually running, not what a repo declares. Read the version from each host, container image and Kubernetes node (the binary's version output, the OS package database, image layers), and check whether the conditions above hold there. Distribution packages may carry a backported fix under an older version number; confirm against the distribution's own advisory.

Verify against the linked advisories before concluding, and cite the date you read each one:
- https://github.com/tmatens/compose-lint/security/advisories/GHSA-m4xg-839g-24cv
- https://github.com/tmatens/compose-lint/pull/945
- https://github.com/tmatens/compose-lint/commit/542e63126f795564a65c63887ea0dc558a500688
- https://github.com/tmatens/compose-lint/releases/tag/v0.32.0
Do not conclude an asset is unaffected unless you checked it and the evidence covers both its version and the conditions above. If you could not check something, mark it unknown and say what is missing.

Report a table with one row per asset and these columns: Asset | Version or build | Status (affected, fixed, not applicable, unknown) | Compensating controls | Exposure (internet-facing, internal, none) | Evidence | Next action.
