Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires a valid authenticated session on the astron-agent platform; a low-privilege account (e.g., a free-tier or trial account on a SaaS deployment) is sufficient - no administrative privileges are needed. The copyFlow endpoint must be network-accessible, which is its default purpose as a console API. The most impactful exploitation occurs in multi-tenant deployments where multiple organizations share a single astron-agent instance, as the cross-tenant access is the primary harm; single-tenant deployments where all authenticated users are trusted reduce the practical risk significantly. Exploitation is further bounded by the discoverability of valid workflow identifiers - sequential integer IDs are trivially enumerable, while random UUIDs require more effort. No special platform configuration, specific OS, or non-default feature flag is required beyond the presence of the copyFlow endpoint, which is part of the standard application.

Impact

The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.6 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N) reflects a network-reachable, low-complexity flaw requiring only a valid low-privilege account - a realistic prerequisite on any shared or SaaS-style deployment. Both confidentiality and integrity impacts are rated High, meaning an attacker can both read sensitive workflow definitions and tamper with other tenants' production workflows. No EPSS data was provided and no CISA KEV listing exists, so widespread automated exploitation is not currently confirmed. However, public disclosure of the vulnerability details on GitHub (issue #1590) and via the VulnCheck advisory means the technical barrier to exploitation is low for anyone with a valid account. Risk is highest in multi-tenant or cloud-hosted deployments; single-tenant self-hosted instances where all users are trusted have substantially lower exposure.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker registers a legitimate low-privilege account on a shared astron-agent instance, then iterates through workflow identifiers by calling the copyFlow endpoint with sequential or guessable IDs. For each valid identifier belonging to another tenant, the attacker copies the workflow into their own namespace and reads the full workflow definition - extracting proprietary AI agent logic, API keys embedded in workflow steps, or business process details - and may also overwrite a victim tenant's workflow with a modified version to disrupt their operations or inject malicious automation steps.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 29, 2026

Authorization bypass in iFlytek astron-agent through 1.1.1 enables authenticated low-privilege users to enumerate workflow identifiers and access workflows owned by other tenants via the copyFlow endpoint, which performs no ownership validation. Attackers can both exfiltrate private workflow definitions - exposing proprietary AI automation logic - and overwrite other tenants' production workflows, achieving high confidentiality and integrity impact across tenant boundaries. No active exploitation is confirmed by CISA KEV and no EPSS data was available, but the vulnerability is publicly disclosed via a GitHub issue and a VulnCheck advisory, making the technical details openly accessible to potential attackers.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patched version has been independently confirmed at the time of analysis; organizations should monitor the upstream repository at https://github.com/iflytek/astron-agent for a release that addresses the missing ownership check in WorkflowService.java. Until an official patch is available, compensating controls should be applied. For multi-tenant deployments, restrict access to the copyFlow endpoint at the API gateway or reverse-proxy layer to prevent cross-tenant calls - note this may break legitimate copy-workflow functionality for users needing to duplicate their own flows. Implementing enumeration-resistant workflow identifiers (e.g., UUIDs instead of sequential integers) reduces the practical attack surface without eliminating the root cause. Audit logging on all copyFlow operations should be enabled immediately to detect unauthorized cross-tenant access attempts. For environments where the copyFlow feature is non-essential, disabling it entirely is the safest interim control.

Technical ContextAI · show details

iFlytek astron-agent is a Java-based AI agent orchestration platform whose console backend exposes workflow management APIs. The vulnerable code resides in WorkflowService.java (visible in the v1.1.1 branch at the referenced GitHub source link) within the copyFlow endpoint. CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) identifies the root cause: the endpoint correctly requires authentication but entirely omits object-level ownership verification, a pattern also known as Broken Object Level Authorization (BOLA) or IDOR. A caller supplies a target workflow identifier, and the service copies or exposes that workflow regardless of whether the caller's tenant account owns it. In multi-tenant deployments this collapses the isolation boundary between tenants. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:iflytek:astron-agent:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, covering all releases through 1.1.1.

DescriptionCVE.org

iFlytek astron-agent through 1.1.1 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in the copyFlow endpoint that fails to validate workflow ownership. Authenticated attackers can enumerate workflow identifiers and overwrite other tenants' workflows or copy private workflows to read their definitions.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

iFlytek astron-agent through version 1.1.1 contains an authorization bypass in the copyFlow endpoint that allows authenticated users to enumerate and access workflows across tenant boundaries, exposing proprietary AI automation logic and enabling production workflow tampering. Organizations relying on this platform for multi-tenant AI automation face direct risk of competitive intelligence theft and operational disruption, with no patch currently available.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: (1) restrict copyFlow endpoint access through network ACLs, API gateway rules, or role-based restrictions to minimize eligible users; (2) enforce strict application-layer RBAC to prevent low-privilege account API access; (3) implement comprehensive audit logging and alerting for all copyFlow calls with cross-tenant detection rules; (4) apply tenant data isolation controls at database and cache layers; (5) conduct immediate access audits to detect and revoke unauthorized cross-tenant workflow access.
