MEDIUM5.0EPSS 0.02%Weblate: Prefix-Based Repository Boundary Check Bypass via Symlink/Junction Path Prefix Collision
發布日:2026/4/16修改日:2026/4/16
描述
### Impact Weblate repository-boundary validation relies on string prefix checks on resolved absolute paths. In multiple code paths, the check uses startswith against the repository root path. This is not path-segment aware and can be bypassed when the external path shares the same string prefix as the repository path (for example, repo and repo_outside). ### Patches * https://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate/pull/18847 ### References Thanks to [m9nx4u](https://hackerone.com/m9nx4u) for reporting this issue via HackerOne.
