cdo-local-uuid vulnerable to insertion of artifact derived from developer's Present Working Directory into demonstration code

cdo-local-uuid project provides a specialized UUID-generating function that can, on user request, cause a program to generate deterministic UUIDs. An information leakage vulnerability is present in cdo-local-uuid at version 0.4.0, and in case-utils in unpatched versions (matching the pattern 0.x.0) at and since 0.5.0, before 0.15.0. The vulnerability stems from a Python function, cdo_local_uuid.local_uuid(), and its original implementation case_utils.local_uuid().
