NewCVE-2026-59257 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade n8n to version 1.123.61, 2.27.4, 2.28.1 or higher.
Overview
n8n is a n8n Workflow Automation Tool
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to SQL Injection in the MySQL v1 node's executeQuery operation, which interpolates evaluated {{ ... }} expression values directly into raw SQL strings without parameterization. An attacker can execute arbitrary SQL against the connected database, with the privileges of the configured MySQL account, by supplying data to an externally reachable trigger such as a Webhook node whose value is interpolated into the query. Exploitation requires a workflow that uses the MySQL v1 node's executeQuery with expression interpolation wired to an externally reachable trigger, and the impact is bounded by the privileges of that database account.
Workaround
This vulnerability can be avoided by requiring authentication on the externally reachable trigger endpoints, such as the Webhook node, so untrusted callers cannot supply the values interpolated into the query.
