Vulnerability in open-webui (CVE-2026-45317)

Summary

Vulnerability in open-webui (CVE-2026-45317). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Mitigation: upgrade to 0.9.3 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

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.
