| Description | Open WebUI is a self-hosted artificial intelligence platform designed to operate entirely offline. Prior to 0.9.5, GET /api/v1/retrieval/ returns live RAG pipeline configuration to any unauthenticated HTTP client. No Authorization header, cookie, or API key is required. Every adjacent endpoint on the same router (/embedding, /config) is correctly guarded by get_admin_user making this a targeted omission. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.9.5. |
