Machine-written summary

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

Open WebUI (PyPI package open-webui) versions 0.9.6 up to but not including 0.10.0 are affected. A user with normal access to an admin-configured terminal connection can send a multiply percent-encoded path that bypasses the terminal proxy path traversal check, causing requests to be forwarded with the configured terminal credentials to paths outside the intended proxy path. Upgrade to open-webui 0.10.0 or later.
