CVE-2026-59219 open-webui CVE debrief
Open WebUI, a self-hosted AI platform, had an authentication bypass issue. From version 0.9.0 to before 0.10.0, with Redis configured, the Socket.IO connection and certain websocket messages did not properly check for revoked JWTs, allowing continued authentication with revoked tokens. This issue was fixed in version 0.10.0. The affected product deployments should be reviewed, and owners should be assigned for follow-up.

Who should care
Users of Open WebUI, especially those with Redis configured, should update to version 0.10.0 or later to address this authentication bypass vulnerability. Affected operator, platform, vulnerability-management, and security-team impact should be assessed.
Technical summary
In Open WebUI versions 0.9.0 to before 0.10.0, with Redis configured, the Socket.IO connection and certain websocket messages (user-join, join-channels, join-note, and terminal websocket first-message) used decode_token without the Redis-backed is_valid_token revocation check. This allowed revoked JWTs to continue authenticating realtime connections, effectively bypassing authentication. The issue was addressed in version 0.10.0. Affected product context and defensive impact should be assessed.
Defensive priority
High
Recommended defensive actions
- Update Open WebUI to version 0.10.0 or later
- Review and revoke any existing JWTs
- Monitor for suspicious authentication attempts
- Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up.
- Review the supplied official advisory or CVE record to validate affected scope, severity, and vendor guidance.
- Plan vendor-supported updates or mitigations through normal change control where exposure is confirmed.
- Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review.
