CVE-2026-12944
CriticalCVSS 9.6Summary
IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.0 allows attackers to execute arbitrary Python code with root privileges (UID=0) on the Langflow server by submitting components containing socket or urllib imports. This enables AWS credential theft via IMDSv1 SSRF, arbitrary file exfiltration from the container filesystem, and lateral movement to internal services (PostgreSQL, Redis) within the Docker network. The scanner incorrectly returns "validated": true, providing a false security signal.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can fully compromise the Langflow server, steal cloud credentials and data, and move laterally to other services in the Docker network, posing a critical threat to confidentiality and integrity.
Recommendation
Update Langflow to a version later than 1.10.0, restrict network access to the Langflow server, and verify that the scanner does not produce false "validated": true results.
Other vulnerabilities in IBM Langflow OSS
See all- CVE-2026-12767Medium
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.11.5 is vulnerable to server-side request forgery (SSRF). This may allow an unauthenticated attacker to send unauthorized requests from the system, potentially leading to network enumeration or facilitating other attacks.
- CVE-2026-12766Medium
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.11.2 is vulnerable to server-side request forgery (SSRF). This may allow an authenticated attacker to send unauthorized requests from the system, potentially leading to network enumeration or facilitating other attacks.
- CVE-2026-12765Medium
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.10.2 is vulnerable to server-side request forgery (SSRF). This may allow an unauthenticated attacker to send unauthorized requests from the system, potentially leading to network enumeration or facilitating other attacks.
- CVE-2026-81204Critical
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.11.5 allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code due to code injection during graph construction.
- CVE-2026-79724Critical
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.11.5 allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary OS commands due to improper neutralization of special elements used in an OS command.
- CVE-2026-85025Critical
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.11.5 allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code and access or modify chat sessions through publicly shared MCP project endpoints due to improper enforcement of public-flow security restrictions and session isolation controls.
- CVE-2026-19295Critical
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.11.1 allow an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary operating system commands in the server process by saving a flow with a crafted type field value and triggering a build of a wrapper flow that references it. This allows privilege escalation from 'authenticated flow user' to arbitrary OS-level command execution, bypassing the LANGFLOW_ALLOW_CUSTOM_COMPONENTS=false policy.
- CVE-2026-19286Critical
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.11.1 could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code due to improper enforcement of security restrictions on the A2A public endpoint.
- CVE-2026-19297Critical
IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.9.6 could allow a remote attacker to obtain unauthorized access to user accounts due to improper restriction of excessive authentication attempts.
- CVE-2026-12946Critical
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.10.0 could allow a remote attacker to inject arbitrary code on the system due to improper control of user input code.
Original NVD description (English source)
IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.0 can allow attackers to execute arbitrary Python code with root privileges (UID=0) on the Langflow server by submitting components containing socket or urllib imports. This enables: (1) AWS credential theft via IMDSv1 SSRF with full IAM role permissions, (2) arbitrary file exfiltration from the container filesystem, and (3) lateral movement to internal services (PostgreSQL, Redis) within the Docker network. The scanner incorrectly returns "validated": true, providing a false security signal.
