[3.5.1]
Update open-webui to 0.11.1
Full Changelog
Security Advisory: This release includes security and access-control fixes. We recommend updating production deployments at your earliest convenience. Not all security fixes in this version may be enumerated in the fixed section. Some may be withheld for a short time to give administrators time to upgrade. Advisories
Database Migrations: This release includes database schema changes; we strongly recommend backing up your database and all associated data before upgrading in production environments. If you are running a multi-worker, multi-server, or load-balanced deployment, all instances must be updated simultaneously, rolling updates are not supported and will cause application failures due to schema incompatibility.
Saving replies as they stream. The "ENABLE_REALTIME_CHAT_SAVE" setting no longer has any effect, because a reply in progress is now held outside the database and written once when it finishes. Commit
Human in the loop tool approval. Where an administrator has turned it on, you can switch a conversation from letting tools run freely to being asked first, so a model that wants to use a tool stops and waits for you to allow or deny it, one call at a time in a saved conversation, by button or by keyboard shortcut, with your choice remembered for this conversation and for future ones, switching back to running freely releasing anything already waiting, and automations, channel replies, and temporary chats unaffected.

Streaming rebuilt from the ground up. A reply now streams as small pieces of new text instead of resending the whole message so far with every update, so the data sent over a reply grows with its length rather than with its length squared, which on a server with many people chatting at once means far less processor time spent encoding, passing, and decoding those updates, far less load and memory on the shared cache that carries them between instances, and far less work in your browser, which no longer takes in the whole reply again and redraws the parts of it that have not changed on every update, cutting the data sent and the server work spent appending to a message by up to 1000x on a very long reply, and a reply still in progress is now kept aside on the server, so reopening the conversation after a refresh picks it up where it is rather than showing a blank message, on deployments backed by Redis.

Knowledge search reaching past what you may read. Searching knowledge bases now applies the list of collections you are allowed to open, where that restriction was handed to the vector store and silently discarded, so results could include material from knowledge bases you have no access to. Commit
Long replies cut off partway. A single oversized piece of a streamed reply, such as a long reasoning trace or a turn carrying many tool calls, no longer ends the answer early with a misleading error about byte counts, which affected every default installation. #28114, #25664
Losing all your settings. Your interface settings are no longer wiped by a session that failed to load them, which could happen with no action on your part and cleared everything from your theme to your model parameters; saving now changes only the settings you actually changed, and a session that cannot load them tells you instead of carrying on as though you had none. #27766, Commit
Knowledge search and shared files in chat. A model searching your knowledge bases or reading a file shared with you through a group now works, where it had failed since 0.11.0 and quietly answered as though the knowledge were empty, affecting instances that forward user details to their embedding service and, for shared files, every instance regardless of settings. #27642, #27641
Signing in where the provider uses a numeric account id. Signing in through GitHub, or any other provider that identifies people by a number, works again on PostgreSQL, where every attempt failed outright since 0.10.2, and on SQLite the existing account was not matched; accounts stored the old way are corrected on the next sign-in. Commit, #28954, #27760
Connection prefixes now show in model names. A connection's prefix appears in the name shown in the model picker, not only in its identifier, where whether it did depended on the shape of the provider's reply and so worked on some connections and not others; models on prefixed connections will now read differently than before. #28950, #28929
