The application performs insufficient validation on the `file.content_type` and allows user-controlled filenames, leading to a path traversal vulnerability. This can be exploited by an authenticated user to overwrite critical files within the Docker container, potentially leading to remote code execution as the root user.\n\n## Affected packages\n\n- `open-webui < 0.5.17`\n\n## Remediation\n\nUpgrade to a patched release:\n\n- `open-webui 0.5.17`","depth":"twilight","depthScore":45,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":44.6,"likelihood":0.2,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
