Overview

flowise is a Flowiseai Server

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Injection via the additionalConfig input, which allows overriding the intended SQLite database path. An attacker can achieve arbitrary code execution by crafting a malicious payload that writes a specially crafted SQLite database to a system configuration file, which is later executed when a process such as Chromium reads the file. This is only exploitable if the attacker is authenticated and the application is running with sufficient privileges (such as root) to write to sensitive directories.
