Bug Report

Installation Method

Installation via Docker (using these instructions: https://shawnhoover.dev/notes/home-ai-server.html)

Environment

Open WebUI Version: - 0.5.18
Ollama (if applicable): N/A
Operating System: Windows 11 Pro
Browser (if applicable): Chrome - Version 133.0.6943.142 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Confirmation:

I have read and followed all the instructions provided in the README.md.
I am on the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
I have included the browser console logs.
I have included the Docker container logs.
I have provided the exact steps to reproduce the bug in the "Steps to Reproduce" section below.

Expected Behavior:

Chat correctly renders the markdown supplied from the LLM

Actual Behavior:

When the following condition holds:

A file has been uploaded into the context or made available via a "Workspace"
LLM-supplied markdown contains an array reference - e.g. [0]

Then the rendering engine seems to inject the file reference in place of the array reference in the resulting HTML.

Bug Summary:
Rendering engine seems to inject file context data into the user response in some scenarios based on the structure of markdown content.

Reproduction Details

Steps to Reproduce:

Start a new chat.
Ask the LLM to do some work - e.g.
Reformat this string: STATUS=$(aws ssm list-commands —command-id “$COMMAND_ID” —query “ommands[0].Status” —output text)
Now add a file into the context (via upload or # syntax to add a workspace context)
Repeat the ask to the LLM.
Observe that the response has had the [0] in the string replaced with:
<source_id data="0" title="...name of file in context referenced..." />

Logs and Screenshots
