Description

createWebhook() in Vercel Workflow DevKit accepts a user-specified token parameter that serves as the credential for the public webhook endpoint /.well-known/workflow/v1/webhook/{token}. Official documentation recommended predictable token patterns, making it possible for an unauthenticated remote attacker to guess the token and inject arbitrary payloads into the workflow execution context.

Impact

An attacker who guesses a webhook token can resume the associated workflow with an attacker-controlled HTTP request body, potentially triggering downstream side effects such as API calls, database writes, or deployments.

Fix

  • Upgrade to version 4.2.0-beta.64. The fix removes the token option from createWebhook() so that webhook tokens are always randomly generated by the SDK.
  • Runs created with versions prior to 4.2.0-beta.64, that are 1) still active (i.e. running), and 2) have open hooks, are still susceptible to this vulnerability. If users suspect the hook tokens are predictable or leaked - consider cancelling those runs and restarting them on the latest patch.

Workarounds

In case a version upgrade is not possible, avoid passing predictable or guessable values to the token parameter of createWebhook(). Instead, users can either

  • switch from createWebhook() to createHook() instead and programmatically resume hooks using resumeHook() instead of the public webhook endpoint, or
  • use createWebhook() without passing a user-provided token, which uses a non-guessable random nanoid by default.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

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

  2. Fix

    Update workflow to 4.2.0-beta.64 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-9r75-g2cr-3h76 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. 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.
