AI-suggested
Upgrade compose-lint to version 0.32.0 or later, where this issue is fixed. Avoid running compose-lint on workflows that expose secrets to untrusted pull-request content, especially in pull_request_target workflows, same-repository branches, or self-hosted runners with retained .env files.
Description
compose-lint versions from 0.22.0 up to but not including 0.32.0 have a vulnerability where secret values from a .env file can be exposed in job logs and code scanning outputs when linting untrusted pull-request content. This occurs because compose-lint substitutes and quotes these secret values in certain finding messages. The issue is fixed in version 0.32.0.
