CVE-2025-13327 is a medium-severity code injection vulnerability in Red Hat AI Inference Server, published on 27 Feb 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link. ### Official description A flaw was found in uv. This vulnerability allows an attacker to execute malicious code during package resolution or installation via specially crafted ZIP (Zipped Information Package) archives that exploit parsing differentials, requiring user interaction to install an attacker-controlled package. Weakness: CWE-1286 (Improper Validation of Syntactic Correctness of Input) ## Which versions are affected by CVE-2025-13327? 5 open source packages ship an affected version, including uv. It affects 1 product. | Package | Ecosystem | Affected | Fixed in | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `uv` | PyPI | All versions | 0.9.6 | | `uv` | PyPI | All versions | 0.9.6 | | `uv` | PyPI | All versions | 0.9.6 | | `uv` | crates.io | All versions | 0.9.6 | | `uv` | crates.io | All versions | 0.9.6 | | `python-uv` | openSUSE:Leap 16.0 | All versions | 0.7.18-160000.4.1 | Products: Astral Uv. ## How do I fix CVE-2025-13327?

What it is: CVE-2025-13327 is a medium-severity code injection vulnerability in Red Hat AI Inference Server, published on 27 Feb 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link. Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-13327 in the wild and no public exploit code. Affected packages and fixed versions: - uv (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.9.6 - uv (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.9.6 - uv (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.9.6 - uv (crates.io): affected all versions; fixed in 0.9.6 - uv (crates.io): affected all versions; fixed in 0.9.6 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.
