Check this codebase for CVE-2014-9200 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2014-9200 is a high-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Schneider Electric Advantys DTMs (OTB, STB), published on 1 Feb 2015. It can be exploited over the network.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2014-9200 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: Schneider Electric Advantys DTMs (OTB, STB). No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
