AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Network-accessible configuration interface with low-privilege authentication aligns with AV:N/PR:L; full C/I/A impact reflects arbitrary code execution capability on the host system.

IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.3 could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code due to improper validation of configuration parameters.
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.3 allows authenticated remote attackers to run arbitrary commands by supplying crafted configuration parameters that bypass the application's incomplete input denylist (CWE-184). The flaw carries a CVSS 8.8 score with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, and SSVC rates the technical impact as total. No active exploitation is confirmed - EPSS sits at 0.42% (35th percentile) and the vulnerability is absent from CISA KEV - though the low attack complexity makes it a genuine priority for any internet-exposed Langflow deployment with untrusted authenticated users.
Technical ContextAI
IBM Langflow OSS is an open-source workflow orchestration platform built on LangChain, enabling users to construct and configure AI/LLM pipelines through a web interface. Because the platform accepts user-supplied parameters to configure workflow components, code execution engines, and external integrations, input validation is security-critical. The root cause is CWE-184 (Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs): the application enforces a denylist approach to block dangerous configuration parameter values, but the list fails to enumerate all hazardous inputs, allowing crafted values to reach code execution pathways. Denylist-based validation is inherently fragile against encoding, alternate representations, and unforeseen input classes - a structural weakness that allowlist validation would eliminate. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:ibm:langflow_oss:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covers all IBM Langflow OSS releases from 1.0.0 through 1.10.3 inclusive.
RemediationAI
The primary fix is to apply the IBM-released patch; consult the vendor advisory at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7282147 for the exact target version and upgrade instructions, as a specific fixed version number was not independently confirmed from the available intelligence data. As compensating controls pending patching: restrict access to the Langflow OSS web interface to known, trusted authenticated users only and enforce network-layer controls such as firewall rules or VPN requirements to block untrusted network access to Langflow endpoints - this directly addresses the AV:N/PR:L attack surface. Disabling or restricting configuration parameter input surfaces for non-administrative authenticated accounts reduces exposure but will limit workflow authoring functionality. Audit existing Langflow configurations for unexpected or externally-influenced parameter values that may indicate prior exploitation attempts.
