V8 - Authorization Object-level authorization, IDOR prevention
|
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires a valid authenticated account on the IBM Langflow OSS instance (any low-privilege user, PR:L) and a deployment with more than one user so cross-user messages/sessions exist to target. No non-default feature or special configuration is needed - the three affected message endpoints lack ownership verification in default deployments of versions 1.0.0 through 1.12.4. The attacker must know or enumerate the victim's message or session identifiers. Key limiting factors: authentication is mandatory (not remote-unauthenticated), and single-user/isolated instances have no other users' data to compromise, which substantially narrows realistic impact to shared or team Langflow environments. |
| Impact | This is a credible, above-average-priority vulnerability but not an emergency. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N) describes a low-complexity, network-reachable flaw requiring only a single low-privileged authenticated account, which fits the CWE-639 (IDOR / missing ownership check) root cause: three message endpoints perform no ownership verification, so any authenticated user can act on another user's data. The 8.3 base score is driven by C:H/I:H with A:L, reflecting conversation-session hijack (confidentiality), message overwrite / prompt injection (integrity), and bulk message deletion (limited availability). No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public exploit were provided - so this is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis', and there is no evidence of active exploitation; the risk is theoretical-but-easy rather than observed-in-the-wild. The practical limiter is the PR:L requirement plus the need for a multi-tenant deployment: a single-user Langflow instance has no cross-user data to attack, so real risk concentrates in shared/team Langflow deployments. The input tag 'Authentication Bypass' conflicts with the actual nature of the flaw - users must already be authenticated and the issue is an authorization (ownership) bypass per CWE-639; treat the tag as mislabeled, not as evidence of pre-auth access. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A low-privileged but legitimate user of a shared IBM Langflow OSS instance enumerates another user's message or session IDs and calls the unprotected message endpoints to overwrite that user's message content with an injected malicious prompt, delete their messages in bulk, or reassign the session ID to hijack the conversation. Because the attacker only needs a valid account and crafted API requests (AV:N/AC:L/UI:N), exploitation is straightforward in any multi-user deployment. No public proof-of-concept was identified at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 20, 2026
Broken object-level authorization in IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.12.4 allows any authenticated low-privilege user to bulk-delete another user's messages, overwrite message content to inject malicious prompts, or reassign a conversation session ID to hijack the session. The CVSS 3.1 score is 8.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:L), so exploitation requires a valid account and a shared deployment where other users' messages or sessions exist; single-user instances have little cross-user data to target. No public exploit code or confirmed active exploitation was identified at time of analysis, and this is assessed as above-average priority rather than an emergency.
RemediationAI
Apply the fix identified in IBM's advisory at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7293016 and upgrade from the affected 1.0.0 through 1.12.4 range; the provided data does not specify an exact patched version, so confirm the fixed release with IBM before upgrading. Until a patched build is deployed, restrict Langflow OSS to trusted users and preferably single-tenant or isolated deployments, limit the number of authenticated accounts, and monitor for bulk message deletion, unexpected message-content changes, and session-ID reassignment. Review application and access logs for cross-user message or session activity, and place the instance behind network access controls or a gateway that limits exposure; these controls reduce collaboration convenience and add operational overhead but lower the likelihood of cross-user object access. Because authentication is mandatory and shared deployments are the primary exposure path, removing untrusted accounts and segregating instances are the most direct compensating measures.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The root cause is CWE-639, Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key, a form of insecure direct object reference affecting Langflow's message and session objects. Langflow is an open-source low-code platform for building LLM and AI applications, and its message endpoints handle conversation history and session state. In versions 1.0.0 through 1.12.4, three message endpoints perform no ownership verification, so an authenticated user who knows or enumerates another user's message or session identifiers can act on objects outside their account. The CVSS vector confirms network reachability (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), low privileges required (PR:L), no user interaction (UI:N), and high confidentiality and integrity impact with limited availability impact. No CPE strings were supplied in the intelligence, so affected product identification relies on the IBM advisory and the stated version range.

DescriptionCVE.org
IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.12.4 contains three message endpoints that perform no ownership verification. Any authenticated user can bulk-delete another user's messages, overwrite message content to inject malicious prompts, or hijack an entire conversation session by reassigning its session ID.
Executive ViewAI
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.12.4 contain an authorization flaw that allows any authenticated low-privilege user to delete or alter other users' messages and hijack conversation sessions in shared deployments. The organizational exposure is concentrated in multi-user or multi-tenant Langflow environments where AI assistants handle sensitive conversation data, since tampering could corrupt AI outputs, inject malicious prompts, and undermine trust in shared AI services. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but leadership should prioritize inventorying shared deployments and tightening access until a vendor fix is available; single-user instances present limited cross-user risk.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; interim mitigations include isolating or temporarily disabling multi-user/shared workspace features, restricting Langflow API/UI access to trusted networks and named users, enforcing least-privilege RBAC and reviewing accounts, adding gateway/proxy authorization checks for message and session operations, enabling audit logging and alerting on bulk message deletion, message overwrites, and session-ID reassignment, rotating session-signing keys, and segmenting Langflow deployments from sensitive data stores until a fixed version is available.
