Summary

Critical vulnerability in IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.10.0 in the /api/v1/validate/code endpoint. Allows an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary Python code on the server without sandboxing, leading to remote code execution.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can execute arbitrary system commands with full privileges of the Langflow process, potentially leading to full server compromise and data breach.

Recommendation

Update IBM Langflow OSS to version 1.10.1 or later, which contains the fix.

Original NVD description (English source)

IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.0 contain a critical remote code execution vulnerability in the code validation API endpoint. The POST /api/v1/validate/code endpoint accepts user-supplied Python code and executes it directly using Python's built-in exec() function without sandboxing, input validation, or privilege restrictions, enabling any authenticated user to execute arbitrary system commands with the full privileges of the Langflow server process.
