Enabling ENABLE_MILVUS_MULTITENANCY_MODE with the default MILVUS_URI (embedded Milvus Lite at DATA_DIR/vector_db/milvus.db) fails on the first embedding write: _create_shared_collection calls collection.create_index(RESOURCE_ID_FIELD) with no index params. A Milvus server auto-selects a scalar index type in that case, but Milvus Lite rejects the call with "create_index missing required 'index_type' parameter", so shared collection creation raises and every embedding write 500s (memory add, file upload, knowledge writes).
Keep the parameterless call as the first attempt so behavior on Milvus servers is unchanged, fall back to an explicit INVERTED scalar index, and if that also fails log a warning and continue. The scalar index only accelerates resource_id filters; inserts and filtered queries work without it, so a missing index must not break collection creation.
Verified against embedded Milvus Lite: shared collections now create (with the warning), and memory add, file upload and memory query succeed end to end. Against a Milvus server the first attempt is identical to the current code, so nothing changes where it works today.
Open WebUI's collection ACL accepted any unknown name as a
legacy/ephemeral collection. In Milvus multi-tenancy mode that name
becomes the `resource_id` and is interpolated unescaped into a SQL-like
Milvus expression — `resource_id == '<name>'` — so a name like
x' or resource_id != '' or resource_id == 'x
turns the filter into a tautology and returns every tenant's chunks
from the shared collection.
All collection names Open WebUI generates are UUIDs, SHA-256 hex
digests, or fixed-prefix variants of those — they all fit
[A-Za-z0-9_-]. Add a strict format check in
filter_accessible_collections (utils.py) that drops any name outside
that set before any ACL or vector-store lookup, applied even on the
admin bypass path. _validate_collection_access then surfaces the dropped
name as a 403.
As defense in depth, MilvusClient now validates resource_id at every
expression-construction site and escapes single quotes / backslashes in
any other string interpolated into a filter (delete ids, metadata
filter values). Non-string filter values are typed-checked instead of
str()-formatted.
