  "details": "### Summary\nIn the open-webui project, a parsing difference between the urlparse and requests libraries led to an SSRF bypass vulnerability.\n\n### Details\nIn the current project, URL validation is performed using the function validate_url.\n\n\u003cimg width=\"1323\" height=\"1145\" alt=\"QQ20260322-202854-22-1\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/896d19f2-c7c3-499a-9052-12aea756ac47\" /\u003e\n\nThe current checking logic uses urlparse to parse the hostname part of the URL for verification.\n\n\u003cimg width=\"1122\" height=\"429\" alt=\"QQ20260322-203014-22-2\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/653520e9-e311-4a5e-8345-a2446e217d88\" /\u003e\n\nHowever, there are actually differences in parsing between urlparse and the library that actually sends the request. For example, in files.py, validate_url is used first for URL validation, and then requests.get is used to send the request.\n\n\u003cimg width=\"1269\" height=\"915\" alt=\"QQ20260322-203122-22-3\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f200aa06-9190-425e-9659-1ecaf95f806b\" /\u003e\n\nThe core issue: `urlparse()` and `requests` disagree on which host a URL like `http://127.0.0.1:6666\\@1.1.1.1` points to:\n\n- `urlparse()` treats `\\` as a regular character and `@` as the userinfo-host delimiter, so it extracts hostname as `1.1.1.1` (public)\n- `requests` treats `\\` as a path character, connecting to `127.0.0.1` (internal)\n\nBelow is a test code I wrote following the open-webui code.\n```\nfrom __future__ import annotations\n\nimport ipaddress\nimport logging\nimport os\nimport socket\nimport urllib.parse\nimport urllib.request\nfrom typing import Optional, Sequence, Union\nimport requests\n\nlog = logging.getLogger(__name__)\n\n# Same text as open_webui.constants.ERROR_MESSAGES.INVALID_URL\nINVALID_URL = (\n    \"Oops!

In reality, this URL is being used to request the internal IP address 127.0.0.1:6666, resulting in an SSRF bypass.\n\n\u003cimg width=\"2255\" height=\"786\" alt=\"QQ20260322-203750-22-5\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/050bc6a4-760f-4d7a-8b52-056778097cd1\" /\u003e\n\n### PoC\n```\nhttp://127.0.0.1:6666\\@baidu.com\n```\n\n### Impact\nSSRF",
