Workarounds

Don't provide user controlled data to these functions/parameters.

Is GHSA-fxf7-vhh8-7vpq in any of your client repos?

Checking one package by hand is fine. Checking it across forty client projects is not. NPMscan reads the lockfiles in every GitHub repo you pick, finds each project with an affected cakephp/cakephp, and gives you the command that fixes it.
