AI-suggested
Upgrade compose-lint to version 0.32.0 or later, where this issue is fixed. No other mitigation is required as the GitHub Action disables command processing and is not affected.
Description
compose-lint versions 0.31.0 up to but not including 0.32.0 contain a vulnerability where improper output neutralization for logs allows untrusted Compose values or repository paths starting with Unicode whitespace followed by :: to be interpreted as GitHub Actions workflow commands in CI environments. This flaw does not affect the linting result and is fixed in version 0.32.0.
