Summary

The "Shareable Playground" (or "Public Flows" in code) contains a critical RCE vulnerability. Simply sharing a flow exposes the deployment to RCE risk by authenticated users.

Tested on commit 2d67402b1dbaefcbce85a244d4a6cd5e4bda1cfe

Details

Shareable Playground feature works by enabling the execution of workflows by unauthenticated users, by accessing a link. Specifically, it enables the route /api/v1/build_public_tmp to execute any public flow, given a public flow ID. When the route executes the flow, it allows for providing arbitrary custom Python code as the nodes code, inside the JSON payload!

The vulnerable field is data.nodes[X].data.node.template.code.value. See PoC for an example.

PoC

Reproduction:

  1. Create a new flow and add a Chat Input node to it
  2. Share the flow ("Shareable Playground")
  3. Access the public link with the browser developers tools open and execute the flow.
  4. Find the /api/v1/build_public_tmp route and copy as cURL
  5. Edit the data.nodes[X].data.node.template.code.value JSON field with any python code and run the cURL command.

Example PoC (replace flow ID with the correct one), and download test_with_python.json:

bash
curl 'http://localhost:7860/api/v1/build_public_tmp/<flow-id>/flow?start_component_id=ChatInput-syEJp&log_builds=false&event_delivery=streaming' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -b 'client_id=anything' \
  --data-raw "$(cat test_with_python.json)"

Search for touch /tmp/pwned in the test_with_python.json and edit for any other code.

The stacktrace for the code executed is:

Impact

Unauthenticated RCE on any deployment with a shareable playground.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in Langflow versions through 1.9.1 allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary Python code on the host by abusing the Shareable Playground (Public Flows) feature. When a flow is shared, the /api/v1/build_public_tmp endpoint accepts user-supplied node code in the JSON payload field data.nodes[X].data.node.template.code.value and executes it during graph instantiation. Publicly available exploit code exists via the GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f, including a working cURL-based PoC.

Technical ContextAI

Langflow is a Python-based low-code platform (distributed as pkg:pip/langflow) for building LangChain-powered AI workflows by visually wiring together component nodes. The Shareable Playground feature exposes the route /api/v1/build_public_tmp/<flow-id>/flow so unauthenticated users can execute a shared flow. During graph construction (lfx/graph/graph/base.py → Graph.from_payload → _instantiate_components_in_vertices → instantiate_component), the server trusts the template.code.value field on each node and compiles it as the custom component class, which constitutes CWE-94 (Improper Control of Generation of Code, a.k.a. code injection). Because the code is taken from the request body rather than the persisted, owner-authored flow definition, any client can substitute their own Python and have it executed inside the Langflow process.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade Langflow to 1.9.2 or later (pip install --upgrade 'langflow>=1.9.2'), as documented in GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f (https://github.com/langflow-ai/langflow/security/advisories/GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f). If immediate patching is not possible, unshare every flow (disable the Shareable Playground / Public Flows feature) so that no flow IDs are reachable via /api/v1/build_public_tmp, and block or reverse-proxy-deny that route at the ingress; note that this disables all public-playground demos and link sharing. Additionally, restrict network exposure of the Langflow service to trusted users via authentication-enforcing proxy or VPN and run the Langflow worker as a low-privileged, sandboxed (container/seccomp) user to limit blast radius if code execution still occurs.
