EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This high-severity CVE scores 7.5 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.8%, top 46% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

Composer is a dependency Manager for the PHP language. Prior to 1.10.28, 2.2.28, and 2.9.8, Composer\IO\BaseIO::loadConfiguration() validates GitHub OAuth tokens with the regex ^[.A-Za-z0-9_]+$ and interpolates rejected tokens into an UnexpectedValueException; GitHub Actions GITHUB_TOKEN values using the ghs__ format can contain -, fail validation, and be disclosed to stderr or CI logs. This issue is fixed in versions 1.10.28, 2.2.28, and 2.9.8.
