CVE-2025-27607
Description
A flaw was found in the Python JSON Logger library (python-json-logger). In affected versions, python-json-logger was vulnerable to remote code execution (RCE) due to a missing dependency. This issue occurred because msgspec-python313-pre was deleted by the owner, leaving the name open to being claimed by a third party. If the package were claimed, it would allow them RCE on any Python JSON Logger user who installed the development dependencies on Python 3.13, such as pip install python-json-logger[dev].
Statement
None of the Red Hat Products and Services are impacted by this vulnerability.
Mitigation
No mitigation is available for this issue other than updating the affected package to the version containing the fix.
