high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 447935

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 0.6.41 until
0.11.1, get_user_by_oauth_sub and get_user_by_scim_external_id in backend/open_webui/models/users.py used
JSON contains matching that compiled to SQL LIKE substring matching on SQLite. An OAuth subject containing
percent or underscore wildcard characters could resolve to a different stored identity, potentially
selecting an administrator account and issuing the attacker that account's session; PostgreSQL deployments
were not affected. This issue is fixed in version 0.11.1. (CVE-2026-87016)
