"RAG_METADATA_MAX_VALUE_CHARS" ships unset, and unset means no bound at all, so the limit only protects the deployments that already knew to configure it. A small Office document is a zip archive, and one crafted to expand enormously during extraction can turn a few hundred kilobytes into gigabytes of metadata held in memory; uploading it a handful of times is enough to exhaust a server and take Open WebUI down with it. When no explicit limit is configured, the bound now follows "RAG_FILE_MAX_SIZE" instead of being absent, on the reasoning that a document cannot legitimately carry more metadata than the file itself is allowed to be. That keeps the number from being an arbitrary guess: it is whatever the administrator already decided an upload may weigh. Setting "RAG_METADATA_MAX_VALUE_CHARS" explicitly still wins, and a deployment that leaves both unset is unchanged, which is the same posture the upload limit itself takes. "RAG_FILE_MAX_SIZE" is in MB and is treated as unset when it is zero, matching how the document loader already reads it.
