SCA: security update for open-webui (GHSA-8gh5-qqh8-hq3x)
medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 444477
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 version 0.6.6, low privileged users can upload HTML files which contain JavaScript code via the
`/api/v1/files/` backend endpoint. This endpoint returns a file id, which can be used to open the file in
the browser and trigger the JavaScript code in the user's browser. Under the default settings, files
uploaded by low-privileged users can only be viewed by admins or themselves, limiting the impact of this
vulnerability. A link to such a file can be sent to an admin, and if clicked, will give the low-privileged
user complete control over the admin's account, ultimately enabling RCE via functions. Version 0.6.6
contains a fix for the issue. (CVE-2025-46571)
Solution
Update the open-webui library and its related packages to version 0.6.6 or later.See Also
