I have read and followed all instructions in README.md.
I am using 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 every relevant configuration, setting, and environment variable used in my setup.
I have clearly listed every relevant configuration, custom setting, environment variable, and command-line option that influences my setup (such as Docker Compose overrides, .env values, browser settings, authentication configurations, etc).
I have documented step-by-step reproduction instructions that are precise, sequential, and leave nothing to interpretation. My steps:
Start with the initial platform/version/OS and dependencies used,
Specify exact install/launch/configure commands,
List URLs visited, user input (incl. example values/emails/passwords if needed),
Describe all options and toggles enabled or changed,
Include any files or environmental changes,
Identify the expected and actual result at each stage,
Ensure any reasonably skilled user can follow and hit the same issue.
Expected Behavior
To be able to verify the connection (and register as a client) of an MCP server, when open-webui is running behind a proxy.
Actual Behavior
The connection never verifies. Register client never succeeds. I see a network timeout.
Steps to Reproduce
Set up a network environment for open-webui, where there is no internet access, but there is a proxy with access to the internet
I believe the issue is backend/open_webui/utils/oauth.py:254 in get_oauth_client_info_with_dynamic_client_registration, where there is:
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
I think this should be:
async with aiohttp.ClientSession(trust_env=True) as session:
Which is a pattern used elsewhere.
Thanks.

### Expected Behavior
To be able to verify the connection (and register as a client) of an MCP server, when open-webui is running behind a proxy.
### Actual Behavior
The connection never verifies. Register client never succeeds. I see a network timeout.
### Steps to Reproduce
1. Set up a network environment for open-webui, where there is no internet access, but there is a proxy with access to the internet
2. Run the docker container, with HTTP_PROXY=<your-proxy>
3. <Name> -> Admin Panel -> Settings -> External Tools
4. +
5. Set Type to MCP Streamable HTTP
6. Set the URL to an external MCP server, such as https://mcp.atlassian.com/v1/sse
7. Set the Auth to OAut 2.1
8. Click Verify Connection (or Register Client)

I think line 290 will also need the same change.

Addressed in dev!
