Description

Weblate is a web based localization tool. Prior to version 5.16.1, the REST API's AddonViewSet (weblate/api/views.py, line 2831) uses queryset = Addon.objects.all() without overriding get_queryset() to scope results by user permissions. This allows any authenticated user (or anonymous users if REQUIRE_LOGIN is not set) to list and retrieve ALL addons across all projects and components via GET /api/addons/ and GET /api/addons/{id}/. Version 5.16.1 fixes the issue.

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 5.16.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-27457 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    Put an independent control in front of the weakness: restrict the affected endpoint or interface to trusted networks, require an additional authentication factor or proxy-level check, and invalidate existing sessions and credentials in case the flaw has already been used.
