What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?
An information leakage vulnerability is present in cdo-local-uuid at version 0.4.0, and in case-utils in unpatched versions (matching the pattern 0.x.0) at and since 0.5.0, before 0.15.0.
The vulnerability stems from a Python function, cdo_local_uuid.local_uuid(), and its original implementation case_utils.local_uuid(). Henceforth, both will be called local_uuid().
local_uuid() generates UUIDv5s using a deterministic pseudorandom number stream. This was written to make graph application demonstrations generate consistent, version-controllable output with minimal noise caused by demonstration re-runs. Part of the information used to keep individual examples' generated output distinct from one another is seed information from the caller's environment, particularly the program's argument vector. The present working directory is also included as part of the seed information, but for reasons including maintaining user environment privacy, as well as keeping generated identifiers consistent regardless of where a source tree is housed on a user's file system, the present working directory is trimmed from the left to exclude path information outside of a supplied "Top" source directory. (In context of the Make scripting language, this "top" directory is typically in a variable called top_srcdir. In context of Git-based project management, this directory is expected to be the root directory of a freshly "Cloned" project, e.g., where .git is stored.)
Under certain conditions, a user's present working directory, as an absolute path, was incorporated into seed data for the local_uuid() deterministic pseudorandom number stream. This violates an expectation made in the documented purpose of the local_uuid() function, and leaks information about a calling user's environment.
The conditions are:
top_srcdir, for instance /home/user1/Documents/Project1;top_srcdir, for instance at ${top_srcdir}/example.py, written to support the deterministic mode of local_uuid();Bạn đang dùng một trong các sản phẩm này? Quét site để biết có đang lộ phiên bản có lỗ hổng không.

That is, instead of ./example.py being in the seed data, /home/user1/Documents/Project1/example.py was in the seed data.
This does not leak the present working directory directly. But, given other knowledge of how a program had been called to generate data using local_uuid() under these conditions, it becomes possible to determine that a chosen path can lead to a known UUIDv5 value. Note that it is not necessarily knowable that the chosen path is the only solution to a sequence reconstruction; but, the path can be confirmed to be a solution.
Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?
The issue has been patched, in the cdo-local-uuid source repository and the case-utils source repository.
Users should upgrade to any of these versions minimally:
case-utils == 0.5.1case-utils == 0.6.1case-utils == 0.7.1case-utils == 0.8.1case-utils == 0.9.1case-utils == 0.10.1case-utils == 0.11.1case-utils == 0.12.1case-utils == 0.13.1case-utils == 0.14.1case-utils >= 0.15.0cdo-local-uuid == 0.5.0All case-utils releases that contain the patch have the commit ea630cce66b26dae6d7fa7e02451d6e25456a5f2 in their Git history. Anyone interested in confirming the presence of this commit in a certain branch or tag can run the following test (written in Bash), substituting the desired branch name for the assigned value of my_git_ref_of_interest:
#!/bin/bash
# Present working directory ($PWD) should be in a clone of this repository:
# https://github.com/casework/CASE-Utilities-Python
my_git_ref_of_interest=main
test \
"xea630cce66b26dae6d7fa7e02451d6e25456a5f2" \
== \
"x$(git merge-base ea630cc ${my_git_ref_of_interest})"
echo $? # Should print '0'
Note that other releases have been posted atop some of those minimal versions recommended for upgrading, named, e.g., 0.5.1.post0. These releases were posted to update internal library version numbers, and otherwise contain no functional changes, in accordance with Python Packaging guidance:
Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?
If the script calling cdo_local_uuid.local_uuid() is moved out of the "Top" source directory, the issue is addressed.
Are there any links users can visit to find out more?
