Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In March 2025
In open-webui version 0.3.8, the endpoint `/models/upload` is vulnerable to arbitrary file write due to improper handling of user-supplied filenames. The vulnerability arises from the usage of `file_path = f"{UPLOAD_DIR}/{file.filename}"` without proper input validation or sanitization. An attacker can exploit this by manipulating the `file.filename` parameter to include directory traversal sequences, causing the resulting `file_path` to escape the intended `UPLOAD_DIR` and potentially overwrite arbitrary files on the system. This can lead to unauthorized modifications of system binaries, configuration files, or sensitive data, potentially enabling remote command execution.

In version v0.3.8 of open-webui/open-webui, sensitive actions such as deleting and resetting are performed using the GET method. This vulnerability allows an attacker to perform Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks, where an unaware user can unintentionally perform sensitive actions by simply visiting a malicious site or through top-level navigation. The affected endpoints include /rag/api/v1/reset, /rag/api/v1/reset/db, /api/v1/memories/reset, and /rag/api/v1/reset/uploads. This impacts both the availability and integrity of the application.

A vulnerability in open-webui/open-webui v0.3.8 allows an unauthenticated attacker to sign up with excessively large text in the 'name' field, causing the Admin panel to become unresponsive. This prevents administrators from performing essential user management actions such as deleting, editing, or adding users. The vulnerability can also be exploited by authenticated users with low privileges, leading to the same unresponsive state in the Admin panel.

In open-webui/open-webui version v0.3.8, there is an improper privilege management vulnerability. The application allows an attacker, acting as an admin, to delete other administrators via the API endpoint `http://0.0.0.0:8080/api/v1/users/{uuid_administrator}`. This action is restricted by the user interface but can be performed through direct API calls.

In version v0.3.8 of open-webui/open-webui, there is an improper access control vulnerability. On the frontend admin page, administrators are intended to view only the chats of non-admin members. However, by modifying the user_id parameter, it is possible to view the chats of any administrator, including those of other admin (owner) accounts.

An improper access control vulnerability in open-webui/open-webui v0.3.8 allows attackers to view and delete any files. The application does not verify whether the attacker is an administrator, allowing the attacker to directly call the GET /api/v1/files/ interface to retrieve information on all files uploaded by users, which includes the ID values. The attacker can then use the GET /api/v1/files/{file_id} interface to obtain information on any file and the DELETE /api/v1/files/{file_id} interface to delete any file.

A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the chat file upload functionality of open-webui/open-webui version 0.3.8. An attacker can inject malicious content into a file, which, when accessed by a victim through a URL or shared chat, executes JavaScript in the victim's browser. This can lead to user data theft, session hijacking, malware distribution, and phishing attacks.

In version v0.3.8 of open-webui/open-webui, improper access control vulnerabilities allow an attacker to view any prompts. The application does not verify whether the attacker is an administrator, allowing the attacker to directly call the /api/v1/prompts/ interface to retrieve all prompt information created by the admin, which includes the ID values. Subsequently, the attacker can exploit the /api/v1/prompts/command/{command_id} interface to obtain arbitrary prompt information.

A vulnerability in corydolphin/flask-cors version 4.0.1 allows for inconsistent CORS matching due to the handling of the '+' character in URL paths. The request.path is passed through the unquote_plus function, which converts the '+' character to a space ' '. This behavior leads to incorrect path normalization, causing potential mismatches in CORS configuration. As a result, endpoints may not be matched correctly to their CORS settings, leading to unexpected CORS policy application. This can cause unauthorized cross-origin access or block valid requests, creating security vulnerabilities and usability issues.

In version 3.22.0 of aimhubio/aim, the LocalFileManager._cleanup function in the aim tracking server accepts a user-specified glob-pattern for deleting files. The function does not verify that the matched files are within the directory managed by LocalFileManager, allowing a maliciously crafted glob-pattern to lead to arbitrary file deletion.
