Summary
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.10.0 (up to commit 94981c443d4918517b9e8163d70fc598dc33a32d) contain a code injection vulnerability in the Policies component's ToolGuard integration that bypasses the allow_custom_components=false security control, allowing authenticated users with flow creation privileges to execute arbitrary Python code on the server.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can execute arbitrary Python code on the server, and through cross-tenant flow manipulation escalate the attack to other users, leading to full system compromise.
Recommendation
Update IBM Langflow OSS to version 1.10.1 or later which contains the fix.

IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.12.8 contain an improper authentication flaw that could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions.
- CVE-2026-110186Critical
IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.12.8 could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code due to improper control of code generation.
- CVE-2026-107329Critical
IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.12.4 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code due to improper control of code generation.
- CVE-2026-107328Critical
IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.12.4 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code due to improper neutralization of code in eval/exec.
- CVE-2026-107327Critical
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.12.4 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code due to missing authorization.
- CVE-2026-104339Critical
IBM Langflow OSS versions 1.0.0 through 1.12.3 could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code due to improper neutralization of special elements used in an OS command.
- CVE-2026-12944Critical
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.
- 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.
Original NVD description (English source)
IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.0 Langflow versions up to 1.9.2 (commit 94981c443d4918517b9e8163d70fc598dc33a32d) contain a code injection vulnerability in the Policies component's ToolGuard integration that bypasses the allow_custom_components=false security control. The vulnerability exists because the validation mechanism only checks the main component source code in node_template["code"]["value"] but fails to validate dynamic CodeInput fields that store generated ToolGuard Python files. Attackers can embed malicious Python code in these unvalidated dynamic fields, which are persisted in Flow.data and later executed server-side when a guarded tool is invoked through the ToolGuard runtime. This allows authenticated users with flow creation privileges to achieve arbitrary Python code execution on the backend despite custom component restrictions. The vulnerability can be escalated through cross-tenant flow manipulation via the agentic MCP update_flow_component_field tool, which accepts attacker-controlled user_id parameters, enabling attackers to inject malicious code into victim users' flows. When combined with publicly accessible flows and specific misconfigurations (AUTO_LOGIN=true, NEW_USER_IS_ACTIVE=true), the attack can be conducted with reduced authentication requirements.
