How to fix?

Upgrade cdo-local-uuid to version 0.5.0 or higher.

Overview

cdo-local-uuid is a Python utility for optionally controlling UUID generation

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insertion of Sensitive Information Into Debugging Code via the local_uuid function. An attacker can obtain sensitive information by exploiting the insertion of this information into debugging code.

Workaround

If the script calling cdo_local_uuid.local_uuid() is moved out of the "Top" source directory, the issue is addressed.
