Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Open WebUI versions before 0.8.11 are affected. An authenticated user can join a document room under an underscore variant of a note's ID, which skips the ownership check that only applies to the colon form, and read another user's private note contents through Socket.IO. The attacker needs to know or guess the target note's ID. Upgrade to Open WebUI 0.8.11 or later, where this is fixed.
