Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-17 14:16 – Updated: 2026-07-20 21:07
VLAI
Summary
Open WebUI Prompt history IDOR: unbound history_id allows cross-prompt read and deletion
Details

Summary

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.

The PoC executes the real route function and the real PromptHistories.compute_diff() implementation with fake model/DB adapters. It authorizes the attacker against attacker-prompt, then supplies two victim history IDs. The route returns the victim prompt snapshots.

Exploit Sketch

Read via the diff endpoint:

  1. Attacker has read access to ATTACKER_PROMPT_ID.
  2. Attacker knows two history IDs for a victim prompt: VICTIM_FROM_HISTORY_ID and VICTIM_TO_HISTORY_ID.
  3. Attacker requests:
GET /api/v1/prompts/id/ATTACKER_PROMPT_ID/history/diff?from_id=VICTIM_FROM_HISTORY_ID&to_id=VICTIM_TO_HISTORY_ID
  1. 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 accept prompt_id and query both entries with PromptHistory.prompt_id == prompt_id alongside the id filter.
  • delete_history_entry() should accept prompt_id and filter filter_by(id=history_id, prompt_id=prompt_id).
  • update_prompt_version() should reject history_entry.prompt_id != prompt_id before 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/version restore-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

Attacker has read access to `ATTACKER_PROMPT_ID`.\n2. Attacker knows two history IDs for a victim prompt: `VICTIM_FROM_HISTORY_ID` and `VICTIM_TO_HISTORY_ID`.\n3. Attacker requests:\n\n```text\nGET /api/v1/prompts/id/ATTACKER_PROMPT_ID/history/diff?from_id=VICTIM_FROM_HISTORY_ID\u0026to_id=VICTIM_TO_HISTORY_ID\n```\n\n4.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-29 18:31 – Updated: 2026-09-29 18:31

Details

Joomla Extension - balbooa.com - Unauthorized Deletion of Attachments in Balbooa Forms < 2.4.3.4 - The public removeTmpAttachment action accepts an integer attachment ID and deletes the matching database row and file. The controller verifies a Joomla session token, but the model does not bind that ID to the session that uploaded the file, the current user, the form, the upload field, or the temporary state. Any guest can obtain a token for their own session, so the token prevents CSRF but does not authorize the target object.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

For each and every data access, ensure that the user has sufficient privilege to access the record that is being requested.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design Implementation

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
Architecture and Design

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.

No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
