Summary

Open WebUI from 0.6.27 before 0.11.4 discloses user session cookies to destination servers, because OAuth-mode connections forward the full browser cookie jar. An operator of an OpenAI-compatible connection, an OpenAPI tool server or a terminal server can capture forwarded session cookies from routine requests and replay them to hijack accounts, including administrator accounts. The weakness is classified as CWE-200.
