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.
CVE-2026-70486
This medium-severity CVE scores 5.4 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.4% (29th percentile of EPSS-scored CVEs). 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).
