SCA: security update for open-webui (GHSA-3r7g-q6cg-q2vx)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 445672

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. In 0.10.2 and
earlier, the GET /api/v1/tools/, GET /api/v1/tools/list, and GET /api/v1/tools/id/{id} endpoints in
backend/open_webui/routers/tools.py returned full Python tool source to authenticated non-admin read-only
users. ToolResponse deliberately omitted source and specs, but ToolUserResponse permitted extra fields and
handlers spread a full tool model dump into the response, re-admitting omitted fields. A non-admin with a
read grant can obtain another user's server-side tool source, which commonly embeds hard-coded API keys,
credentials, and internal service URLs. This issue is fixed in 0.11.0. (CVE-2026-70491)

Solution

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