Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Open WebUI versions before 0.9.0 are affected. The URL validation used for web search and other server-side fetches fails to block IPv6 addresses, IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses, and several reserved IPv4 ranges. An authenticated user can make the server send requests to internal addresses, such as cloud metadata services or localhost-bound APIs, which may expose credentials. Upgrade to Open WebUI 0.9.0 or later. The source gives no workaround.
