AI-suggested
Upgrade OpenMage magento-lts to version 20.17.0 or later, which contains the official fix for this vulnerability. There is no vendor advisory explicitly provided here, but the version 20.17.0 patch is confirmed to remediate the issue. Until upgrading, restrict or monitor file upload functionality to prevent uploading of malicious phar files if possible.
Description
Magento Long Term Support (LTS) is an unofficial, community-driven project provides an alternative to the Magento Community Edition e-commerce platform with a high level of backward compatibility. Prior to version 20.17.0, PHP functions such as `getimagesize()`, `file_exists()`, and `is_readable()` can trigger deserialization when processing `phar://` stream wrapper paths. OpenMage LTS uses these functions with potentially controllable file paths during image validation and media handling. An attacker who can upload a malicious phar file (disguised as an image) and trigger one of these functions with a `phar://` path can achieve arbitrary code execution. Version 20.17.0 patches the issue.
