Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 17:29 – Updated: 2023-05-22 18:30
VLAI
Details

A vulnerability in the application-hosting subsystem of Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker to elevate privileges to root on an affected device. The attacker could execute IOS XE commands outside the application-hosting subsystem Docker container as well as on the underlying Linux operating system. These commands could be run as the root user. The vulnerability is due to a combination of two factors: (a) incomplete input validation of the user payload of CLI commands, and (b) improper role-based access control (RBAC) when commands are issued at the command line within the application-hosting subsystem. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by using a CLI command with crafted user input. A successful exploit could allow the lower-privileged attacker to execute arbitrary CLI commands with root privileges. The attacker would need valid user credentials to exploit this vulnerability.

Summary
Open WebUI: LDAP and OAuth First-User Race Condition Allows Multiple Admin Accounts
Details

Summary

The LDAP and OAuth authentication flows use a TOCTOU (Time-of-Check-Time-of-Use) pattern for first-user admin role assignment. The regular signup handler (signup_handler in auths.py, line 663) was explicitly patched to prevent this race with the comment "Insert with default role first to avoid TOCTOU race", but the LDAP and OAuth code paths were never updated with the same fix.

Vulnerable Code

LDAP (auths.py, lines 479-490)

# Line 482 - CHECK: is the user table empty?
role = 'admin' if not Users.has_users(db=db) else request.app.state.config.DEFAULT_USER_ROLE

# Lines 484-490 - USE: create user with the role determined above
user = Auths.insert_new_auth(
    email=email,
    password=str(uuid.uuid4()),
    name=cn,
    role=role,   # <-- role was determined BEFORE insert, race window exists
    db=db,
)

OAuth (oauth.py, lines 1103-1112, 1566-1574)

# Line 1104 - CHECK: count users
def get_user_role(self, user, user_data):
    user_count = Users.get_num_users()
    if not user and user_count == 0:
        return 'admin'    # Line 1112

# Lines 1566-1574 - USE: create user with pre-determined role
user = Auths.insert_new_auth(
    ...
    role=self.get_user_role(None, user_data),  # Line 1571
    ...
)

Both paths determine the role BEFORE inserting the user, creating a race window where multiple concurrent requests on a fresh instance can all observe an empty database and all receive the admin role.

Comparison with Patched Signup

The signup_handler (auths.py, line 663) was explicitly fixed:

# Insert with default role first to avoid TOCTOU race
user = Auths.insert_new_auth(..., role=DEFAULT_USER_ROLE, ...)
# Then check if this is the only user and upgrade
if Users.get_num_users() == 1:
    Users.update_user_role_by_id(user.id, 'admin')

The LDAP and OAuth paths did NOT receive this fix.

Exploitation

  1. Deploy Open WebUI with LDAP or OAuth enabled on a fresh instance (no existing users)
  2. Send multiple concurrent authentication requests from different users
  3. Multiple requests pass the has_users() / get_num_users() == 0 check simultaneously
  4. All concurrent users become administrators

DATABASE_ENABLE_SESSION_SHARING defaults to False (env.py:387), so each call uses its own database session, widening the race window.

Impact

Any LDAP/OAuth user who times their first login concurrently with the legitimate first admin can escalate to full admin privileges, gaining access to all user data, system configuration, API keys, and connected LLM backends.

Suggested Fix

Apply the same insert-then-check pattern used in signup_handler: insert the user with DEFAULT_USER_ROLE first, then atomically check if this is the only user and upgrade to admin only if so.

Resolution

Fixed in PR #23626 (commit 96a0b3239), first released in v0.9.0 (Apr 2026). Both LDAP (routers/auths.py) and OAuth (utils/oauth.py) registration paths now use the same insert-first-check-after pattern that signup_handler already had:

  1. Insert the new user with DEFAULT_USER_ROLE unconditionally — no pre-insert role decision based on user count.
  2. After the insert commits, atomically call Users.get_num_users() == 1 to check whether this is the sole user.
  3. Only the sole user gets promoted to admin via Users.update_user_role_by_id.

OAuthManager.get_user_role was also updated to return DEFAULT_USER_ROLE (not admin) for first-user bootstrap; admin promotion is deferred to the post-insert check above. With this ordering, two concurrent first-user registrations that both observe an empty table can both insert, but only one will see get_num_users() == 1 afterward — the other will see == 2 and not be promoted.

Users on >= 0.9.0 are not affected.

VLAI
Details

A local privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Plugin Alliance InstallationHelper service included with Plugin Alliance Installation Manager v1.4.0 on macOS. Due to the absence of a hardened runtime and a __RESTRICT segment, a local user may exploit the DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES environment variable to inject a dynamic library, potentially resulting in code execution with elevated privileges.

Mitigation MIT-1
Architecture and Design Operation

Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.

Mitigation MIT-48
Architecture and Design

Strategy: Separation of Privilege

Follow the principle of least privilege when assigning access rights to entities in a software system.

Mitigation MIT-49
Architecture and Design

Strategy: Separation of Privilege

Consider following the principle of separation of privilege. Require multiple conditions to be met before permitting access to a system resource.

CAPEC-122: Privilege Abuse

An adversary is able to exploit features of the target that should be reserved for privileged users or administrators but are exposed to use by lower or non-privileged accounts. Access to sensitive information and functionality must be controlled to ensure that only authorized users are able to access these resources.

CAPEC-233: Privilege Escalation

An adversary exploits a weakness enabling them to elevate their privilege and perform an action that they are not supposed to be authorized to perform.

CAPEC-58: Restful Privilege Elevation

An adversary identifies a Rest HTTP (Get, Put, Delete) style permission method allowing them to perform various malicious actions upon server data due to lack of access control mechanisms implemented within the application service accepting HTTP messages.
