Description
Withdrawn Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it does not describe a valid vulnerability. This link is maintained to preserve external references.
Original Description
Open WebUI Cleartext Transmission of Credentials Information Disclosure Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of Open WebUI. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of credentials provided to the endpoint. The issue results from transmitting sensitive information in plaintext. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to disclose transmitted credentials, leading to further compromise. Was ZDI-CAN-28259.

Weakness
CWE-319: Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information
The product transmits sensitive or security-critical data in cleartext in a communication channel that can be sniffed by unauthorized actors.
How to prevent it
- Architecture and Design: Before transmitting, encrypt the data using reliable, confidentiality-protecting cryptographic protocols.
- Implementation: When using web applications with SSL, use SSL for the entire session from login to logout, not just for the initial login page.
- Implementation: When designing hardware platforms, ensure that approved encryption algorithms (such as those recommended by NIST) protect paths from security critical data to trusted user applications.
- Testing: Use tools and techniques that require manual (human) analysis, such as penetration testing, threat modeling, and interactive tools that allow the tester to record and modify an active session. These may be more effective than strictly automated techniques. This is especially the case with weaknesses that are related to design and business rules.
- Operation: Configure servers to use encrypted channels for communication, which may include SSL or other secure protocols.
