Exploitation Status
Proof-of-concept exploit code exists
- CISA’s SSVC triage found public proof-of-concept exploit code for this CVE, though no confirmed active exploitation.
- A successful exploit gives an attacker total control of the affected component, not partial access.

flowisenpmflowise-componentsnpmDescription
Flowise is a drag & drop user interface to build a customized large language model flow. Prior to 3.1.3, executeJavaScriptCode() accepted caller-provided nodeVMOptions and merged them over the default NodeVM security settings in packages/components/src/utils.ts. An authenticated attacker reaching packages/server/src/routes/node-custom-functions/index.ts could run a custom function that imported flowise-components/dist/src/utils.js, called executeJavaScriptCode() again with nodeVMOptions.require.builtin set to allow all built-in modules, and then required child_process to execute arbitrary system commands as root on the Flowise server. This issue is fixed in version 3.1.3.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
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.
Fix
Update flowise to 3.1.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-69254 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 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2026-69254 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to CVE-2026-69254. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
