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 0.9.3, an application-wide Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability was found Open-WebUl's image
 uploading functionality. An attacker can set an image URL to a malicious endpoint, allowing them to
 perform actions on behalf of a victim user. Any authenticated user can exploit this vulnerability, and any
 user who views the compromised image (e.g., a profile picture) will unknowingly send a GET request to the
 attacker-controlled URL. This can lead to cookie theft, denial of service (DoS), or other malicious
 actions. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.9.3. (CVE-2026-45317)
