Overview

open-webui is an Open WebUI

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization via the pin_note_by_id process. An attacker can modify the is_pinned status of a shared note without proper authorization by sending a POST request to the relevant endpoint while only having read access. This is only exploitable if the attacker has been granted explicit read access to the note via sharing.
