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-2026-115207/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-115207/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-115207","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-115207/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-115207","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-115207","ECHO-63dc-00f6-c1c4","GHSA-m74w-h57v-xv36","OESA-2026-4617","OESA-2026-4618","OESA-2026-4619","OESA-2026-4620","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-115207","openSUSE-SU-2026:12302-1"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":"redhat","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"A flaw was found in GNU patch. An attacker can achieve arbitrary file creation outside the intended working directory by enticing a user or automated workflow to apply a specially crafted patch file. Due to missing validation during automatic patch reversal, absolute file paths in patch headers are accepted rather than rejected.
