CVE-2026-28786
Last modified
CVE-2026-28786 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 4.3/10 on the CVSS scale. Open WebUI is a self-hosted artificial intelligence platform designed to operate entirely offline. Prior to version 0.8.6, an unsanitized filename field in the speech-to-text transcription endpoint allows any authenticated non-admin user to trigger a `FileNotFoundError` whose message — including the server's absolute `DATA_DIR` path — is returned verbatim in the HTTP 400 response body, confirming information disclosure on all default deployments. EPSS estimates a 0.43% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
