SCA: security update for open-webui (GHSA-v2qm-5wxj-qhj7)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443357

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Open WebUI is a self-hosted artificial intelligence platform designed to operate entirely offline. Prior
to 0.9.6, Open WebUI patched SVG XSS in user profile images and webhook profile images but forgot to apply
the same fix to model profile images. The ModelMeta class has no validate_profile_image_url field
validator, and the model image serving endpoint has no MIME allowlist or nosniff header. Any authenticated
user with workspace.models permission (enabled by default) can store a data:image/svg+xml;base64,...
payload in a model's profile image and achieve full account takeover of anyone who navigates to the image
URL. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.9.6. (CVE-2026-54013)

Solution

Update the open-webui library and its related packages to version 0.9.6 or later.
