Title
Weblate: Team-enforced 2FA is bypassed for global permissions
Summary
Weblate is a web-based continuous localization platform used to manage software translations. In versions prior to 2026.7, a team can require its members to configure two-factor authentication before receiving the team's permissions, but this requirement is not enforced for site-wide global permissions. As a result, a user who belongs to a team that enforces 2FA and grants a global permission still receives that global permission even without 2FA configured, while the same requirement is correctly applied to project-, component-, and workspace-scoped permissions. Such a user can act on the granted global permission, including reaching the site management interface at /manage/. This issue is fixed in version 2026.7.
