No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-2052/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-2052/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-2052","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-2052/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-2052","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7hcx-rxp8-j55g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"unknown","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Python standard library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An off-by-one error in Python's locale module allows attackers to read sensitive memory via buffer over-reads.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"python","vendor":"python"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-193","name":"Off-by-one Error"}],"description":"Off-by-one error in the PyLocale_strxfrm function in Modules/_localemodule.c for Python 2.4 and 2.5 causes an incorrect buffer size to be used for the strxfrm function, which allows context-dependent attackers to read portions of memory via unknown manipulations that trigger a buffer over-read due to missing null termination.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2007-05-08","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2007-05-08","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"30018","stars":null,"title":"Python 2.5 - 'PyLocale_strxfrm' Remote Information Leak"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2052","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"python:python","products":["python:python"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2007"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":38,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2053"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2051"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-04-16","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5031","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-11-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-4650","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-02-20"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-5636","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-09-02"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4559","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-08-28"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-17522","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-14"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Incremental HTMLParser feed() allows CPU-exhaustion DoS via repeated unterminated markup declarations","id":"CVE-2026-15308","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-13404","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-08"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An off-by-one error in Python's locale module allows attackers to read sensitive memory via buffer over-reads.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-2052/"}
