CVE-2026-70486

Open WebUI is an extensible, feature-rich, and user-friendly self-hosted AI platform. From 0.9.0 until 0.11.0, the terminal file-preview serveUrl iframe branch always granted allow-same-origin together with allow-scripts for HTML files served from the application origin. Any authenticated user with access to a configured terminal server could cause script in a previewed file to run in the Open WebUI origin, read the victim's session token from localStorage, and take over the account, with possible server-side code execution if the victim was an admin or held workspace.functions. This issue is fixed in 0.11.0.

What the metrics mean

  • For an attacker who can reach it, exploitation depends on conditions outside the attacker's control.
  • To exploit it, an ordinary user account is needed.
  • Beyond that, no action by a user is required.
