Description
n8n before 1.123.64, 2.29.8, and 2.30.1 contains a stored DOM cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Resource Locator component, which passes the workflow-persisted cachedResultUrl parameter to window.open() without scheme validation. An attacker with workflow creation/editing privileges can craft a workflow with a malicious (e.g., javascript:) scheme in cachedResultUrl; when a victim opens the crafted workflow and interacts with external links, the payload executes in the victim's browser.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for n8n. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update n8n to 1.123.64 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-65592 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether CVE-2026-65592 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to CVE-2026-65592. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
