InvenTree is an Open Source Inventory Management System. From 1.2.3 to 1.2.6, the fix for CVE-2026-27629 upgraded the PART_NAME_FORMAT validator to use jinja2.sandbox.SandboxedEnvironment. However, the actual renderer in part/helpers.py was not updated and still uses the non-sandboxed jinja2.Environment. Additionally, the validator uses a dummy Part instance with pk=None, which allows conditional template expressions to behave differently during validation versus production rendering. A staff user with settings access can craft a template that passes validation but executes arbitrary code during rendering. This issue requires access by a user with granted staff permissions. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.2.7 and 1.3.0.
This vulnerability carries a MEDIUM severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 5.5, indicating it can be exploited remotely over the network with relatively low complexity without requiring user interaction . The vulnerability impacts limited data confidentiality, limited integrity, for affected systems. Impacting 1 product from inventree_project organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Reported in 2026, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For inventree_project's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
