Affected: >= 0.7.0 and < 0.11.0

Fixed in: 0.11.0

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 0.7.0

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 0.7.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison open-webui sudo apt install open-webui=<VERSION_BEFORE_0.7.0> sudo apt-mark hold open-webui

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list open-webui sudo dnf downgrade open-webui-<VERSION_BEFORE_0.7.0> sudo dnf versionlock add open-webui

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
