Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionCVE.org
Weblate is a web-based continuous localization platform used to manage software translations. In versions prior to 2026.7, the REST API did not properly enforce the scope of project- and workspace-scoped teams, allowing a user to submit invalid team configurations through the API. By assigning projects to a team via these unvalidated requests, a user could grant access to projects they were not authorized to see or manage. This could expose private projects and permit translation, repository, and project-management operations outside the user's intended permission scope. This issue is fixed in version 2026.7.
AnalysisAI
Weblate's REST API failed to enforce permission scope on team (group) assignments in all versions prior to 2026.7, allowing any authenticated low-privilege user to assign unauthorized projects or workspaces to a team via the API. The root serializer field defining_workspace resolved primary keys against Workspace.objects.all() without filtering by the requesting user's permissions, enabling horizontal privilege escalation to private projects. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a valid Weblate user account with an API token - any authenticated user regardless of their assigned roles qualifies (CVSS PR:L confirmed). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 8.1 score (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N) accurately reflects the threat profile: network-reachable, low-complexity, low-privilege exploitation yielding high confidentiality and integrity impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An authenticated Weblate user with a low-privilege API token crafts a POST request to the team creation or update endpoint, supplying the primary key integer of a private project or workspace they do not normally have access to in the `defining_workspace` or `defining_project` field. The pre-patch API resolves this key against the full workspace table without permission checks and silently grants the attacker's team access to the target project, exposing private translation content and allowing repository and project-management operations. … |
| Remediation | The primary fix is to upgrade Weblate to version 2026.7 or later, which enforces proper queryset-level permission filtering on team workspace and project assignments in the REST API. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
