A vulnerability was detected in WeKan up to 8.18. The affected element is the function setCreateTranslation of the file client/components/settings/translationBody.js of the component Custom Translation Handler. The manipulation results in improper authorization. The attack can be launched remotely. Upgrading to version 8.19 is sufficient to fix this issue. The patch is identified as f244a43771f6ebf40218b83b9f46dba6b940d7de. It is suggested to upgrade the affected component.
AnalysisAI
Wekan versions up to 8.18 contain an authorization bypass in the custom translation handler that allows authenticated users to manipulate translation settings they should not have access to. An attacker with valid credentials can exploit the setCreateTranslation function to gain unauthorized access to modify translations, potentially affecting application functionality and data integrity. The vulnerability has been patched in version 8.19 and users should upgrade immediately.
