Weird. I already own this dlc but it allows me to enter. Not entering for obvious reasons, but still, it might be the same for other people so it would be good to check on that.

Same. Think we should report this as a bug. It might lead to abuse otherwise.

How do I do that?

I don't think you can do that: it's up to the giveaway creator to check the winners.

I opened a ticket on support, category = other and reported the situation. This is obviously a SG bug since I can't join giveaways for games that I own and any giveaway for a game that I won during the current game refresh/sync session is automatically dismissed..

It's a known issue of SteamGifts, DLC are not checked automatically so it's up to you when you enter or for the creator to check the winner.

Dear giveaway creator, it seems there are some limitations regarding detecting DLCs and people already owning the DLC can enter a giveaway. Therefore, you must make sure to check whether the winner already has it or not and maybe pick a new winner.
Here is the answer I received from SG support:

Sadly fixing detection of DLC is not something SG admin can do.
We can sync only information visible here:
https://steamcommunity.com/id/2131860468400/games/?tab=all
As Steam does not send list of user owned DLCs via their SteamAPI - we are unable to sync them.
Creator can still check if winner already have DLC they won on their Steam account - but they need to add them on Steam and try to gift them the DLC. If someone owns it - it will show "already owns it" message.

Thanks for the heads-up, sent a friend request to the winner.
edit: Checked it out, winner doesn't have this DLC, thanks again!
