The /openai/models endpoint in open-webui/open-webui version 0.3.8 is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF). An attacker can change the OpenAI URL to any URL without checks, causing the endpoint to send a request to the specified URL and return the output. This vulnerability allows the attacker to access internal services and potentially gain command execution by accessing instance secrets.
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.
In version 0.3.8 of open-webui, an endpoint for converting markdown to HTML is exposed without authentication. A maliciously crafted markdown payload can cause the server to spend excessive time converting it, leading to a denial of service. The server becomes unresponsive to other requests until the conversion is complete.
A vulnerability in open-webui/open-webui versions <= 0.3.8 allows remote code execution by non-admin users via Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF).
