An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-45339 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- open-webui (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.9.0\n- open-webu (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.9.0\n- open-webu (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.9.0\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45339/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45339/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-45339","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45339/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-45339","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-57q6-fvp4-pqmm","PYSEC-2026-3543"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"AI platform","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can bypass API key restrictions on restricted endpoints by using the x-api-key header instead of Authorization, allowing unauthorized model invocation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"open_webui","vendor":"openwebui"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-863","name":"Incorrect Authorization"}],"description":"Open WebUI is a self-hosted artificial intelligence platform designed to operate entirely offline. Prior to 0.9.0, Open WebUI allows admins to restrict which API endpoints an API key can access.

However, the same key sent via the x-api-key header bypasses the restriction entirely — the request is authenticated, the model is invoked, and a full response is returned.
