Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation targets the unauthenticated POST /api/v1/account/register endpoint of a Flowise deployment running in multi-tenant mode (Flowise Cloud) on a version below 3.1.0. The concrete prerequisite that LIMITS exploitation is that the attacker must supply a valid, existing organization UUID (and corresponding role UUID) to hijack a specific tenant - arbitrary self-elevation without knowing these identifiers yields only a self-owned org, which is why the vendor rates AC:H. No authentication or user interaction is required (CVSS PR:N/UI:N), but the impact is meaningful only where the multi-tenant organization/workspace model is in use; a purely single-tenant self-hosted instance has a much smaller trust boundary to violate.

Impact

Signals are mixed and point to a serious-but-not-yet-mass-exploited flaw. The vendor CVSS of 8.1 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/C:H/I:H/A:H) reflects network reach and no authentication, but with high attack complexity - consistent with the PoC requirement that an attacker know a valid, existing organization UUID to hijack it. CISA SSVC rates Exploitation as 'poc', Automatable 'no', and Technical Impact 'total', which aligns with a targeted rather than spray-and-pray threat. EPSS is very low (0.04% / 13th percentile) and the CVE is not in CISA KEV, so there is no evidence of active exploitation despite a published PoC - do not conflate the two. The A:H (availability) component in the vendor vector is questionable: the described impact is integrity/authorization manipulation, and availability loss would only be an indirect consequence of gaining an owner role, so treat A:H as generous. Bottom line: for anyone running Flowise multi-tenant / Cloud this is a real priority because the technical impact is total tenant-boundary compromise; for single-tenant self-hosted instances the practical risk is lower.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker first obtains a valid organization UUID (e.g., leaked in a URL, invite link, or prior response) belonging to a target tenant. They then POST a registration request to /api/v1/account/register containing the normal user fields plus injected organization and organizationUser objects referencing that UUID with an owner roleId, and the server persists the account already associated with the victim's organization at an elevated role. A working PoC demonstrating the 201 Created behavior and the injected-field request is published in the GitHub Security Advisory.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 24, 2026

Improper mass assignment in the account registration endpoint of Flowise (Flowise Cloud, versions prior to 3.1.0) lets unauthenticated attackers smuggle server-managed fields and nested objects into the POST /api/v1/account/register payload, forging ownership metadata, timestamps, organization association, and role mappings. In a multi-tenant SaaS deployment this breaks tenant trust boundaries, potentially letting an attacker attach a freshly-registered account to an existing organization with an elevated role. Publicly available exploit code exists (a working PoC is published in the GitHub Security Advisory), but the issue is not in CISA KEV and EPSS is very low (0.04%, 13th percentile).

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade to Flowise 3.1.0, which fixes the mass-assignment flaw; the npm 'flowise' package is patched in 3.1.0 (vulnerable <= 3.0.13). If you cannot upgrade immediately, apply a server-side allowlist/DTO at the registration boundary so only name, email, and credential are accepted, and explicitly strip or reject any client-supplied organization, organizationUser, workspace, workspaceUser, roleId, createdBy, updatedBy, createdDate, and updatedDate fields - the trade-off is that this requires a code or reverse-proxy/WAF rule and must be kept in sync with the real schema. As a compensating control, place the /api/v1/account/register endpoint behind validation that rejects nested objects, and server-side reassign ownership/timestamp/role fields after account creation rather than trusting the payload; monitor for registrations that reference existing organization UUIDs.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Flowise is a Node.js/TypeScript drag-and-drop builder for LLM orchestration flows, distributed via the npm package 'flowise'. The affected component is the account-registration API of its hosted Cloud offering. The root cause is CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key), realized here as classic mass assignment / JSON injection: the /api/v1/account/register handler expects a minimal user object (name, email, credential) but the backend performs no strict allowlist or DTO validation and instead binds the raw client JSON directly onto internal domain models. Because the persistence layer trusts client-supplied values, attacker-controlled fields such as createdBy, updatedBy, createdDate, updatedDate and entire nested entities (organization, organizationUser, workspace, workspaceUser) are written verbatim. The affected product is identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:flowiseai:flowise:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*.

DescriptionNVD

Flowise is a drag & drop user interface to build a customized large language model flow. Prior to 3.1.0, an improper mass assignment (JSON injection) vulnerability in the account registration endpoint of Flowise Cloud allows unauthenticated attackers to inject server-managed fields and nested objects during account creation. This enables client-controlled manipulation of ownership metadata, timestamps, organization association, and role mappings, breaking trust boundaries in a multi-tenant environment. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.0.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Flowise Cloud versions prior to 3.1.0 contain a mass assignment vulnerability in account registration that allows unauthenticated attackers to hijack newly created accounts into existing organizations with elevated privileges, directly undermining multi-tenant tenant isolation. While no active exploitation is currently observed, publicly available exploit code exists, creating immediate risk for any unpatched deployment. This vulnerability affects the core trust boundary that SaaS security depends on.
