Description Preview
CVE-2024-7046 is a medium-severity vulnerability that has been identified in open-webui/open-webui v0.3.8. The issue arises from improper access control which allows an attacker to view the details of the first admin (owner).

The attack complexity is low and requires no user interaction.

This error allows an attacker to bypass the access control and view the details of the first admin (owner). The attack can be conducted over the network and requires low privileges. The impact of the vulnerability is a breach of confidentiality.
