Description

Summary

There is a Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in Open WebUI SVG renderer implementation.

Details

It is possible permanently save any HTML/JavaScript code in the application, which can be then executed in the context of the application domain. This behaviour can be used to extract and steal sensitive data from the application, manipulate DOM tree or being used in complex client-side attacks.

PoC

Steps to reproduce:

To reproduce this vulnerability you need to:

  1. Login to Open WebUI
  2. Start new conversation / thread
  3. Use prompt: "Hey. Can you draw me a green circle using SVG ?"
  4. SVG image should be generated.
  5. Now it's possible to edit the code by simply clicking on it and adding additional code. Add payload <img src=a onerror=alert(document.domain)>
  6. The whole code should look like this:
<svg width="100" height="100" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <circle cx="50" cy="50" r="40" fill="green"/>
</svg><img src="a" onerror="alert(document.domain)">ok</img>
<img width="1249" alt="AI XSS1" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/75167880-79ac-4510-9743-f99bf81a215d" />
  1. Now clicking "Save", the new image should get rendered, and malicious code - executed (by popping alert).
<img width="527" alt="AI XSS2" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/24d4e572-97f0-438f-993d-08e1d421b349" />

Such thread could be then shared and sent to other users.

Impact

Cross-Site Scripting allows attacker to execute malicious code in context of victim's browser. This way it could be used in malicious client-side attack achieving different things, depends on attacker's goal. Such thread with rendered SVG could be shared to other user (or administrator) and gain sensitive data or even takeover someone's account.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    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.

  2. Fix

    Update open-webui to 0.6.31 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-r29h-37fj-x2w6 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    Escape or sanitise the affected output on the server side rather than relying on client-side filtering, and add a Content-Security-Policy that blocks inline script execution so injected markup cannot run even if it reaches the page.
