CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability affects the Open WebUI platform versions 0.9.6 to 0.11.1, where an authenticated user can exploit the SafePlaywrightURLLoader to manipulate hostname validation, potentially exposing internal service responses or cloud metadata. This could lead to significant data leakage if an attacker controls the DNS, allowing them to access sensitive information through web search or URL ingestion. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize upgrading to version 0.11.1 to mitigate this high-severity risk.

Original NVD Description
Open WebUI is an extensible, feature-rich, and user-friendly self-hosted AI platform. From 0.9.6 until 0.11.1, SafePlaywrightURLLoader in backend/open_webui/retrieval/web/utils.py validated a user-controlled hostname in Python and then let the Playwright browser resolve it again in the sync and async request interceptors. An authenticated user controlling authoritative DNS could return a public address to validation and an internal address to the browser, exposing responses from internal services or cloud metadata through web search or URL ingestion. This issue is fixed in version 0.11.1.
