Open WebUI: Cross-user model-list exposure via static cache key in get_all_models (aiocache key= vs key_builder= misuse)
CVE-2026-59213GHSA-3wp3-xxj9-5jqq
What to do
Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (open-webui 0.10.0), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.
This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
Summary The getallmodels handlers in routers/openai.py and routers/ollama.py intended to cache their permission-filtered model lists per user, but the @cached decorator was misconfigured: it passed a key= lambda instead of keybuilder=. In aiocache 0.12.3 (the pinned version), key= is a static cache key — a callable passed there is used as a constant object, not invoked per call. As a result the per-user key was never computed, and all callers collided onto a single shared cache entry within the TTL window. During that window, one user's permission-filtered model list could be served to a different authenticated user, crossing the per-user authorization boundary. Impact - Boundary crossed: Confidentiality (cross-user). A caller can receive the model list scoped to a different security principal than themselves. - A user (or admin, or — depending on endpoint reachability — anonymous caller) who populates the cache causes the next caller within the TTL to receive that list rather than…

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2026-59213 Advisory: Open WebUI: Cross-user model-list exposure via static cache key in get_all_models (aiocache key= vs key_builder= misuse) IDs: CVE-2026-59213, GHSA-3wp3-xxj9-5jqq Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-59213 (revision 2, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 13:49 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: Low (CVSS 3.5) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: open-webui 0.10.0. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - PyPI open-webui: affected >= 0.6.27, < 0.10.0; fixed in 0.10.0 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - `python -m pip show open-webui`: prints the installed version. Run with the environment that serves production active. ## Supported action Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on open-webui. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-3wp3-xxj9-5jqq (OSV record GHSA-3wp3-xxj9-5jqq lists affected ranges: PyPI open-webui >=0.6.27 <0.10.0 (fixed)) - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-3wp3-xxj9-5jqq (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-3wp3-xxj9-5jqq lists affected ranges: PyPI open-webui >=0.6.27 <0.10.0) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
