CVE-2026-44571 Details
Open WebUI is a self-hosted artificial intelligence platform designed to operate entirely offline. Prior to 0.8.6, in standard channels (i.e., channels whose channel.type is neither group nor dm), the endpoint POST /api/v1/channels/{channel_id}/messages/{message_id}/update can be accessed with read permission only. When access_control is set to None, the authorization check has_access(..., type="read") evaluates to True, allowing users who are not the message owner to update messages. As a result, unauthorized modification of other users’ messages is possible. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.8.6.

Bitsight, the leading provider in Cyber Risk Management, introduced the next-generation internet scanner Bitsight Groma in May 2024. This technology continuously scans the entire internet to discover assets, collect asset attribution evidence, and identify an ever-growing set of security observations, such as vulnerabilities and misconfigurations. Groma’s scanning activities presently encompass:


  • 40 million-plus monitored organizations
  • 250 million-plus host names
  • 4 billion-plus routable IPv4 and IPv6 addresses

Greynoise’s recent study testifies the speed of Bitsight Groma.
