How severe is CVE-2026-69251?

No CVSS score has been assigned to CVE-2026-69251 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2026-69251?

CVE-2026-69251 affects the following packages: flowise (npm), flowise-components (npm). Ecosystems affected: npm.

How do I fix CVE-2026-69251?

Update flowise to 3.1.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-69251 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2026-69251 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-2026-69251 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

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 does O3 Security protect against CVE-2026-69251?

O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2026-69251 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.

Is CVE-2026-69251 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2026-69251 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-2026-69251?

CVE-2026-69251 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 3.3%, placing it in the 88th 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-2026-69251?

CVE-2026-69251 is classified as Code Injection (CWE-94). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

Is there exploit tooling available for CVE-2026-69251?

A Nuclei detection template exists for CVE-2026-69251, meaning automated scanners can fingerprint it. Public exploit tooling significantly increases real-world risk — prioritize patching and ensure detection coverage. Exploit tooling should only ever be used in isolated, authorized testing environments.

When was CVE-2026-69251 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2026-69251 was published on August 4, 2026 and was last updated on September 16, 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

Flowise is a drag & drop user interface to build a customized large language model flow. Prior to 3.1.3, Flowise record manager and agent memory nodes allowed users to set arbitrary TypeORM DataSource options through the additionalConfig input in packages/components/nodes/recordmanager/MySQLRecordManager/MySQLrecordManager.ts, packages/components/nodes/recordmanager/PostgresRecordManager/PostgresRecordManager.ts, packages/components/nodes/recordmanager/SQLiteRecordManager/SQLiteRecordManager.ts, packages/components/nodes/memory/AgentMemory/MySQLAgentMemory/MySQLAgentMemory.ts, and packages/components/nodes/memory/AgentMemory/AgentMemory.ts. TypeORM DataSource options such as entities, subscribers, and migrations can load local JavaScript files, allowing an authenticated user to execute arbitrary code on the server by uploading a JavaScript payload and referencing it from additionalConfig.entities. This issue is fixed in version 3.1.3.
