6.4 MEDIUM

Low-privilege authentication required for Code/Function node access; SSRF enables subsequent-system reach into internal services, warranting scope change with limited C and I impact.

DescriptionCVE.org

n8n versions before 2.34.1 contain a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the legacy request helper function exposed to Code and Function nodes. The validation logic checks the uri property for SSRF safety while the underlying HTTP client uses the url property when both are present, allowing attackers to bypass validation by supplying a safe uri alongside a malicious url to access internal addresses.

AnalysisAI

Server-side request forgery in n8n before 2.34.1 allows authenticated low-privileged users to bypass SSRF protection in Code and Function nodes by simultaneously supplying a safe uri parameter and a malicious url parameter to the legacy request helper function. Because the SSRF validation inspects only uri while the HTTP client dispatches using url when both are present, the safety check is rendered ineffective and internal network addresses become reachable. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an authenticated n8n user account with explicit permissions to create or edit Code or Function nodes - a capability typically granted to developers, automation engineers, or power users rather than read-only or consumer-level accounts. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 5.3 with PR:L accurately reflects the meaningful barrier of requiring authenticated low-privileged access to Code or Function nodes, which substantially narrows the exploitable population compared to fully unauthenticated SSRF flaws. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade n8n to version 2.34.1 or later, which resolves the vulnerability by aligning validation logic with HTTP client property precedence so that url is also subjected to SSRF safety checks. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
