New CVE NOT AVAILABLE CWE-15  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade flowise to version 2.1.4 or higher.

Overview

flowise is a Flowiseai Server

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to External Control of System or Configuration Setting via the overrideConfig option. An attacker can execute arbitrary code, crash the server, perform server-side request forgery and exfiltrate server variables and data by injecting malicious configurations.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by disabling overrideConfig by default and implementing an explicit allow list for modifiable variables. Additionally, removing vm2 and any forks of it, as fixing the vulnerability seems impossible, with isolated-vm recommended as a replacement.
