How severe is CVE-2026-41273?

No CVSS score has been assigned to CVE-2026-41273 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2026-41273?

CVE-2026-41273 affects the following packages: flowise (npm). Ecosystems affected: npm.

How do I fix CVE-2026-41273?

Update flowise to 3.1.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-41273 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2026-41273 in my npm dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for flowise, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2026-41273 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Put an independent control in front of the weakness: restrict the affected endpoint or interface to trusted networks, require an additional authentication factor or proxy-level check, and invalidate existing sessions and credentials in case the flaw has already been used.

Is CVE-2026-41273 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2026-41273 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2026-41273?

CVE-2026-41273 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.3%, placing it in the 24th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2026-41273?

CVE-2026-41273 is classified as Missing Authentication (CWE-306). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was CVE-2026-41273 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2026-41273 was published on April 23, 2026 and was last updated on October 28, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Description

Summary

Flowise contains an authentication bypass vulnerability that allows an unauthenticated attacker to obtain OAuth 2.0 access tokens associated with a public chatflow.

By accessing a public chatflow configuration endpoint, an attacker can retrieve internal workflow data, including OAuth credential identifiers, which can then be used to refresh and obtain valid OAuth 2.0 access tokens without authentication.

Details

Flowise is designed to allow public chatflows to be accessed by unauthenticated end users via public URLs or embedded widgets. As a result, chatflowId values are intentionally exposed to unauthenticated clients and must not be treated as secrets.

However, the endpoint GET /api/v1/public-chatbotConfig/<chatflowId> returns internal flowData without authentication. The returned flowData includes workflow node definitions containing OAuth credential identifiers (credential field).

Separately, the endpoint POST /api/v1/oauth2-credential/refresh/<credentialId> allows OAuth. 2.0 tokens to be refreshed without authentication or authorization checks.

Because credential identifiers can be obtained from the unauthenticated public chatflow configuration endpoint, these two behaviors can be combined to allow unauthenticated OAuth 2.0 access token disclosure.

PoC

Prerequisites

Self-hosted Flowise instance
A public chatflow configured with an OAuth 2.0 credential (e.g., Gmail OAuth2)

Step 1: Obtain `chatflowId`

The chatflowId is exposed to unauthenticated users via public chatflow URLs, embedded widgets, or browser network requests when accessing a public chatflow.

Example: d37b9812-72c1-4c64-b152-665f307f755e

Step 2: Retrieve internal `flowData` without authentication

curl -s \
  http://localhost:3000/api/v1/public-chatbotConfig/d37b9812-72c1-4c64-b152-665f307f755e

The response includes flowData containing an OAuth credential identifier, for example:

"credential": "6efe0e20-ba6f-4fbb-9960-658feffa0542"

Step 3: Refresh OAuth 2.0 token without authentication

curl -X POST \
  http://localhost:3000/api/v1/oauth2-credential/refresh/6efe0e20-ba6f-4fbb-9960-658feffa0542

The response returns valid OAuth 2.0 access token data, including an access_token.

Impact

An unauthenticated attacker can obtain OAuth 2.0 access tokens for third-party services configured in Flowise, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, API abuse, or account compromise.

This vulnerability affects self-hosted deployments because public chatflows are commonly exposed to the internet and require unauthenticated access by design. Treating chatflowId as a secret does not mitigate the issue.
