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, the SQLite Record Manager node in packages/components/nodes/recordmanager/SQLiteRecordManager/SQLiteRecordManager.ts accepted user-controlled additionalConfig and spread it after the intended database setting, allowing additionalConfig.database to overwrite the SQLite database path. An authenticated attacker using the published Docker image, which ran as root, could write a SQLite database to paths such as /etc/chromium/exploit.conf; by controlling the table name and namespace value, the attacker could place shell syntax into the database file and trigger execution when Puppeteer launched Chromium and sourced /etc/chromium/*.conf. 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-2026-69259 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-2026-69259 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to CVE-2026-69259. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
