v1/models

Security Researcher Detected: You might have ended up here because your site vulnerability scanner found something interesting. Hi! I'm a security engineer and I'm having a good time interacting with the people and bots that are interested in information security.

You will hopefully find this site is well-secured and I'm not interested in being hacked. I'm interested in learning about how people try to hack me, though.

What is this endpoint?

v1/models

OpenAI Models API

What an attacker could do

Lists the models accessible to the bound API key, confirming the key is valid and revealing which paid or fine-tuned models the account can reach for targeted abuse.

How to defend it

Do not expose the provider API directly; require authentication on any proxy and rotate keys immediately if a models listing is reachable without auth.
