Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
Open WebUI is an extensible, feature-rich, and user-friendly self-hosted AI platform. Prior to 0.10.0, the /api/v1/auths/signin endpoint looked users up by email and only ran bcrypt password verification when a credential existed, making registered-account attempts measurably slower than missing-email attempts and allowing unauthenticated account enumeration. This issue is fixed in version 0.10.0.
AnalysisAI
Timing-based account enumeration in Open WebUI prior to 0.10.0 exposes whether any given email address is registered on a self-hosted AI instance. The /api/v1/auths/signin endpoint only invokes bcrypt password verification when a matching email record exists, making registered-account login attempts measurably slower than attempts against unregistered emails - a classic CWE-208 timing oracle. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | No special configuration is required - the timing discrepancy exists in the default behavior of the /api/v1/auths/signin endpoint on any Open WebUI instance prior to v0.10.0 (CVSS AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N confirms remote unauthenticated exploitation against default configurations of Open WebUI). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N, score 5.3) is proportionate: this is an information disclosure primitive, not a direct account takeover. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker with network access to the Open WebUI signin endpoint sends automated POST requests with candidate email addresses from a credential or username wordlist, measuring response latency for each attempt. Emails belonging to registered accounts consistently return slower responses due to bcrypt execution, while unregistered emails return quickly, allowing the attacker to statistically separate the two populations and compile a valid-account list. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade to Open WebUI version 0.10.0 or later, which resolves the timing oracle by ensuring consistent execution time on the signin path regardless of whether the provided email matches a registered account. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
