CVE-2026-33220
CWE-22Published: April 15, 2026· Updated: Apr 21, 2026
Official Description
Weblate is a web based localization tool. In versions prior to 5.17, the translation memory API exposed unintended endpoints, which in turn didn't perform proper access control. This issue has been fixed in version 5.17. If developers are unable to update immediately, they can disable this feature as the CDN add-on is not enabled by default.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-33220 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), with a CVSS base score of 6.8.
The vulnerability has a "Changed" scope, meaning successful exploitation can impact components beyond the vulnerable component itself — such as the host operating system or adjacent services.
