How it was found

Hello,

Description:

The account settings page, https://demo.weblate.org/accounts/profile/#account, allows a user to set their username as a null character! A user intercepts the request using a proxy and changes the user name field to %00.

Mitigation:

I recommend you have filtering of null characters on your account settings page.

Thanks!
