Download

For cweagans/composer-patches, choose a version below and download the bundle. Copy its magento2-40242/ folder into patches/composer/, merge composer.patches.json into composer.json, then run composer install. Test files are always removed; paths are relative to each package root, using the default -p1 level.

No checked release lacks this fix with a clean code match, so no bundle is offered.
