Description
An improper access control vulnerability in open-webui/open-webui v0.3.8 allows an attacker to view admin details. The application does not verify whether the attacker is an administrator, allowing the attacker to directly call the /api/v1/auths/admin/details interface to retrieve the first admin (owner) details.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for open-webui, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Remediation status
The records we use list no patched version of open-webui for GHSA-gv26-qw3h-8qvp. Check the maintainer's advisory, and where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range.
Mitigate without a patch
Put an independent control in front of the weakness: restrict the affected endpoint or interface to trusted networks, require an additional authentication factor or proxy-level check, and invalidate existing sessions and credentials in case the flaw has already been used.
