CVE-2026-59222 Open WebUI vulnerability
Open WebUI is an extensible, feature-rich, and user-friendly self-hosted AI platform. From 0.7.0 before 0.10.0, GET /api/v1/channels//members returned full UserModelResponse objects for channel members, including settings.ui.toolServers[].key and webhook configuration, allowing a normal channel participant to retrieve other users’ sensitive settings. This issue is fixed in version 0.10.0.
Quick answer
Open WebUI should be reviewed and updated if it matches the affected versions. The recommended fix is to apply the vendor-supported patched version or the mitigation steps below, then retest the public website with Fixnx.

How to fix it
CVE-2026-59222 affects Open WebUI 0.7.0 before 0.10.0, where channel member APIs returned full user objects including sensitive tool server keys and webhook configuration to normal channel participants. Prioritize shared or internet-facing Open WebUI deployments because the issue can affect realtime sessions, model access, knowledge files, terminal proxy access, or sensitive settings depending on the endpoint. Upgrade Open WebUI to 0.10.0 or a later supported release. Restrict channel membership APIs and rotate exposed webhook or tool credentials if leakage is suspected.
- Inventory all Open WebUI deployments, containers, workers, reverse proxies, realtime Socket.IO endpoints, terminal integrations, and configured model providers.
- Identify Open WebUI 0.7.0 before 0.10.0 and schedule an upgrade to Open WebUI 0.10.0 or later for CVE-2026-59222.
- Upgrade Open WebUI to 0.10.0 or a later supported release, rebuild images, restart services, and clear stale application caches where applicable.
- Restrict channel membership APIs and rotate exposed webhook or tool credentials if leakage is suspected.
- Review Open WebUI roles, verified-user status, model permissions, knowledge base permissions, terminal connections, Redis token revocation, and provider credentials for unnecessary exposure.
- Review application, reverse proxy, Socket.IO, terminal backend, and audit logs for suspicious endpoint use matching the affected workflow.
- If credential or data exposure is suspected, revoke sessions and API keys, rotate provider credentials and webhooks, remove malicious content, and preserve request logs before cleanup.
