SCA: security update for open-webui (GHSA-jxc9-xmc4-gr23)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 445663

Description

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

 - Open WebUI is an extensible, feature-rich, and user-friendly self-hosted AI platform. From 0.9.6 until
 0.11.0, the sync cleanup endpoint authorized write access to the knowledge base in the URL but then acted
 on directory and file ids supplied in the request body without checking that those objects belonged to
 that knowledge base. A user with write access to one knowledge base could delete directories and remove
 file embeddings from another knowledge base, causing documents to drop out of retrieval results and
 breaking chat-with-file for targeted documents without disclosing contents. This issue is fixed in 0.11.0.
 (CVE-2026-70488)

Solution

Update the open-webui library and its related packages to version 0.11.0 or later.
