Sonarr is a PVR for Usenet and BitTorrent users. Versions prior to 4.0.16.2942 have an authentication bypass that affected users that had disabled authentication for local addresses (Authentication Required set to: Disabled for Local Addresses) without a reverse proxy running in front of Sonarr that didn't not pass through the invalid header. Patches are available in version 4.0.16.2942 in the nightly/develop branch and version 4.0.16.2944 for stable/main releases. Some workarounds are available. Make sure Sonarr's Authentication Required setting is set to Enabled, run Sonarr behind a reverse proxy, and/or do not expose Sonarr directly to the internet and instead rely on accessing it through a VPN, Tailscale or a similar solution.
CVE-2026-30975
This critical-severity CVE scores 9.8 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit-prediction score not yet available (the EPSS model rescores nightly; freshly-published CVEs typically appear within 48 hours). GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
