Open WebUI is an extensible, feature-rich, and user-friendly self-hosted AI platform. From 0.6.27 until 0.11.1, backend/open_webui/utils/tools.py captured a cookie jar from the enclosing connection loop instead of binding it to each external tool callable. When multiple tool servers were attached and a session or system OAuth connection was processed last, a request to a different server configured for bearer authentication could include the calling user's Open WebUI session cookies, allowing that server's operator to reuse the session and take over the account. This issue is fixed in version 0.11.1.
CVE-2026-87015
This medium-severity CVE scores 6.8 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 78% 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).
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
