Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects PyPI packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

Impact

The verification of the second factor was not subject to rate limiting. The absence of rate limiting on the second factor endpoint allows an attacker with valid credentials to automate OTP guessing.

Patches

This issue has been addressed in Weblate 5.12 via https://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate/pull/14918.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency

  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for weblate, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update weblate to 5.12 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2025-47951 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
