Summary
Vulnerability in LangChain before versions 0.3.85 and 1.3.3. Older runtime code paths deserialize inputs/outputs using overly broad object allowlists, allowing an attacker to supply malicious constructor dictionaries and instantiate objects with dangerous arguments.
Risk Assessment
Risk of dangerous operations being executed by an attacker in the context of the LangChain application.
Recommendation
Update LangChain to version 0.3.85 or 1.3.3 (or later).
Other vulnerabilities in LangChain
See all- CVE-2025-68664Critical
LangChain, a framework for building agents and LLM-powered applications, prior to versions 0.3.81 and 1.2.5 has a serialization injection vulnerability in its dumps() and dumpd() functions. The functions do not escape dictionaries with 'lc' keys when serializing free-form dictionaries. The 'lc' key is used internally by LangChain to mark serialized objects. When user-controlled data contains this key structure, it is treated as a legitimate LangChain object during deserialization rather than plain user data.
- CVE-2023-36095Critical
A vulnerability in LangChain version 0.0.194 allows remote code execution via the from_math_prompt and from_colored_object_prompt functions in the PALChain class. An attacker can inject malicious Python code through the eval mechanism.
- CVE-2023-36258Critical
An issue in LangChain before version 0.0.236 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code. The ability to use os.system, exec, or eval in Python code poses a significant risk.
- CVE-2023-34541Critical
Langchain version 0.0.171 is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution in the load_prompt function.
- CVE-2026-41481Medium
In LangChain before version 1.1.2, an SSRF vulnerability exists in HTMLHeaderTextSplitter.split_text_from_url(). Although the initial URL is validated, redirects are not checked, allowing an attacker to access internal network resources.
- CVE-2026-34070High
A vulnerability in LangChain prior to version 1.2.22 allows arbitrary file read via directory traversal or absolute path injection in prompt configurations. Attackers can use load_prompt() or load_prompt_from_config() to read files, limited only by file extensions (.txt, .json, .yaml).
- CVE-2024-58340High
A ReDoS vulnerability in LangChain up to version 0.3.1 exists in the MRKLOutputParser.parse() method. An attacker can supply crafted text (e.g., via prompt injection) causing excessive CPU consumption and parsing delays, leading to denial of service.
Original NVD description (English source)
LangChain is a framework for building agents and LLM-powered applications. Prior to 0.3.85 and 1.3.3, LangChain contains older runtime code paths that deserialize run inputs, run outputs, or other application-controlled payloads using overly broad object allowlists. These paths may call load() with allowed_objects="all". This does not enable arbitrary Python object deserialization, but it does allow any trusted LangChain-serializable object to be revived, which is broader than these runtime paths require. As a result, attacker-supplied LangChain serialized constructor dictionaries may cause trusted runtime paths to instantiate classes with untrusted constructor arguments. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.3.85 and 1.3.3.
