Open WebUI: Authenticated users can bypass model access control via exposed query parameter

Published May 15, 2026 · Updated May 19, 2026 · Assigned by GitHub_M

Description

Open WebUI is a self-hosted artificial intelligence platform designed to operate entirely offline. Prior to 0.8.11, an internal-only bypass_filter parameter is exposed on the /openai/chat/completions and /ollama/api/chat HTTP endpoints via FastAPI query string binding, allowing any authenticated user to append ?bypass_filter=true and bypass model access control checks to invoke admin-restricted models. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.8.11.
