Open WebUI is an extensible, feature-rich, and user-friendly self-hosted AI platform. From 0.9.6 until 0.11.0, with WEB_LOADER_ENGINE=playwright, the Playwright web loader validates only the top-level page request and lets sub-resource requests pass unvalidated. A page supplied by an authenticated user can use JavaScript to reach blocked internal addresses, and returned DOM can include data read from those addresses in web-search or RAG output. This issue is fixed in 0.11.0.
CVE-2026-70479
This high-severity CVE scores 7.7 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 82% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
