AC raised to H because successful exploitation depends on the non-default optional hardening mode being enabled, a condition outside attacker control; all other metrics align with the reported vector.

DescriptionCVE.org

IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.3 could allow an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code due to a cryptographic weakness in the custom component validation mechanism. When the optional hardening mode that restricts execution to trusted component templates is enabled, the application validates component code using a truncated SHA‑256 hash. Because the hash comparison relies on only a portion of the digest, an attacker can craft malicious component code that collides with a trusted template hash and bypasses validation. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to introduce and execute unauthorized Python code within the Langflow process, defeating the intended security control and potentially leading to full compromise of the affected instance.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in IBM Langflow OSS (versions 1.0.0 through 1.10.3) allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary Python code by exploiting a cryptographic weakness (CWE-326) in the custom component validation mechanism. When the optional hardening mode is enabled - the feature intended to restrict execution to trusted component templates - the application validates submitted component code against a truncated SHA-256 digest, making it computationally feasible for an attacker to craft a malicious Python file that collides with a trusted template's hash and bypasses the validation gate entirely. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Authenticate to Langflow with low-privilege account
Delivery
Identify registered trusted component template
Exploit
Compute hash-colliding Python payload
Execution
Submit malicious component to Langflow API
Persist
Truncated SHA-256 validation bypass succeeds
Impact
Execute arbitrary Python within Langflow process

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Two specific conditions must both be true for exploitation: (1) the target Langflow instance must have the optional hardening mode explicitly enabled - this is not the default configuration, so deployments running with defaults are not exposed to this specific validation bypass; and (2) the attacker must hold a valid authenticated session with at least low-privilege access (PR:L per CVSS vector). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The NVD CVSS 3.1 score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) reflects a network-accessible, low-complexity attack requiring only low-privilege authenticated access with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the affected instance. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An authenticated Langflow user - for example, a compromised low-privilege account or a malicious insider - identifies a trusted Python component template registered in the hardening mode allowlist and iterates code variations to find a payload whose truncated SHA-256 hash collides with the trusted template's digest. The attacker submits this crafted malicious component through the normal Langflow interface; because the truncated hash matches the expected value, the hardening-mode validation passes and the attacker's arbitrary Python code executes within the Langflow server process. …
Remediation Apply the vendor-released patch per IBM advisory https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7282646. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all systems running IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.10.3 and determine whether hardening mode is enabled; restrict network access to Langflow instances to trusted administrative networks only and disable component upload capabilities until patching is complete. …
