Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions open-webui/open-webui version 0.3.8

Description The /api/pipelines/upload endpoint is susceptible to arbitrary file write and deletion due to improper sanitization of the file.filename variable when concatenated with CACHE DIR. This allows attackers to overwrite and delete system files, potentially leading to remote code execution.

Recommendations open-webui/open-webui version 0.3.8: Sanitize the file.filename variable before concatenating it with CACHE DIR in the /api/pipelines/upload endpoint to prevent arbitrary file write and deletion. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the /api/pipelines/upload endpoint until a patch is available.
