"summary": "[DISPUTED BY VENDOR] Open WebUI Improper Access Control — Cross-Admin Chat Access via user_id",
"details": "> **DISPUTED BY VENDOR (Open WebUI maintainers).** This advisory does not describe a vulnerability. It describes an administrator-versus-administrator scenario — one admin reading another admin's chats via the `user_id` parameter on an admin-gated endpoint. Administrators of a single instance share one trust boundary and full system control; this is not a privilege boundary in the project's threat model. Out of scope per the Open WebUI security policy (Rules 7, 9). The corresponding report was filed via the project's GHSA channel (GHSA-3w8w-xvxq-jmwp) and closed as out-of-scope; huntr.dev published the CVE in disregard of that vendor disposition. A formal REJECT request is pending with MITRE. See: https://docs.openwebui.com/security/vendor-dispositions/cve-2024-7040/\n\n---\n\nIn version v0.3.8 of open-webui/open-webui, there is an improper access control vulnerability.
