Overview

open-webui is an Open WebUI

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization via the OAuth token exchange process. An attacker can gain unauthorized access by exchanging a valid provider access token for a session even if their email domain is not on the allowlist. This is only exploitable if ENABLE_OAUTH_TOKEN_EXCHANGE is set to True and OAUTH_ALLOWED_DOMAINS is configured to restrict domains.
