CRITICAL 9.8

DescriptionCVE.org

IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.1 are vulnerable to unauthenticated remote code execution via environment variable injection in the MCP (Model Context Protocol) stdio launcher. The vulnerability exists in src/lfx/src/lfx/base/mcp/util.py where the DANGEROUS_ENV_VARS blocklist fails to include SHELLOPTS , BASHOPTS , and PS4 environment variables.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated remote code execution in IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.1 allows remote attackers to run arbitrary OS commands by injecting shell-control environment variables into the MCP (Model Context Protocol) stdio launcher. The DANGEROUS_ENV_VARS blocklist in src/lfx/src/lfx/base/mcp/util.py omits SHELLOPTS, BASHOPTS, and PS4, letting an attacker abuse Bash's xtrace behavior to execute commands when a stdio-based MCP server subprocess is spawned. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation	Exploitation requires that the target Langflow OSS instance (1.0.0-1.10.1) use the MCP stdio launcher to spawn an external MCP server subprocess, and that an attacker can influence the environment variables passed to that launch-specifically injecting SHELLOPTS, BASHOPTS, and/or PS4, which the DANGEROUS_ENV_VARS blocklist does not filter. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment	The signals are largely consistent and point to a genuine high priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario	An attacker who can reach a Langflow OSS instance and influence an MCP stdio server launch supplies malicious PS4 and SHELLOPTS/BASHOPTS environment values that the launcher passes to a Bash subprocess. When Bash runs with xtrace enabled, it expands the attacker-controlled PS4 trace prompt, executing the embedded command substitution and yielding arbitrary OS command execution on the host. …
Remediation	Upgrade to the fixed IBM Langflow OSS release identified in the vendor advisory at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7279995 (patch available per vendor advisory; an exact fixed version number is not specified in the provided data and must be taken from that page). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
