Release notes

Sourced from squizlabs/php_codesniffer's releases.

3.13.6 - 2026-08-06

This is a security release and all users are advised to update their install(s) as soon as possible.

Changed

• Various housekeeping, including improvements to the tests and documentation.
  • Thanks to Sergei Morozov and Juliette Reinders Folmer for their contributions.

Fixed

• SECURITY FIX: Running PHP_CodeSniffer over untrusted files, for example, in a CI pipeline that scans pull requests, or on a developer machine reviewing third-party code, could result in attacker-controlled shell commands being executed when the Gitblame, Hgblame or Svnblame report(s) would process a file whose name contains shell metacharacters. #1473
  • Users using the default Full report, or any of the other non-*blame reports, are not affected.
  • For more details, see the security advisory.
  • Thanks go to Faze-up and Volker Dusch for responsibly disclosing the vulnerability.
  • Additionally, thanks go to Volker Dusch, Rodrigo Primo, Dan Wallis and Juliette Reinders Folmer for creating and testing the fix.

Other

• The GPG signature for the PHAR files has been rotated. The new fingerprint is: 5CB4F778BF9BC4FB67AE511D96E91A992CF22FF4.

  • Thanks to Andrew Lyons for the patch.
• Fixed bug #1279: Tokenizer/PHP: on PHP < 8.0, an unclosed attribute (parse error) could end up removing some tokens from the token stream.
  • This could lead to false positives and false negative from sniffs, but could also lead to incorrect fixes being made mangling the file under scan.
  • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch.

Other

• Please be aware that the master branch has been renamed to 3.x and the default branch has changed to the 4.x branch.
  • If you contribute to PHP_CodeSniffer, you will need to update your local git clone.

• The minimum required PHP_CodeSniffer version to 3.13.5 (was 3.13.4). #2761
• The minimum required PHPCSUtils version to 1.2.2 (was 1.1.0). #2761

• WordPress.NamingConventions.PrefixAllGlobals has been updated to recognize pluggable functions introduced in WP up to WP 7.0.0. #2747

• WordPress.WP.AlternativeFunctions: false negative when class functions/constants/properties use the same name as select global WP constants/functions. #2617
• WordPress.WP.AlternativeFunctions: false positive for fully qualified references to the global PHP stream constants \STDIN, \STDOUT, and \STDERR. #2617
• WordPress.WP.CronInterval: false positive when the callback function reference used a different case than the function declaration, even though they are in the same file. #2730

3.3.0
