How severe is GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f?

GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f has a CVSS score of 9.6/10, rated CRITICAL. Immediate patching is strongly recommended.

Which packages are affected by GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f?

GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f affects the following packages: langflow (PyPI). Ecosystems affected: PyPI.

How do I fix GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f?

Update langflow to 1.9.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f in my PyPI dependencies?

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

How do I mitigate GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Stop passing untrusted input into the interpreter or shell: call the affected binary with an argument array rather than a composed command string, reject anything outside a strict allowlist of expected values, and run the component under an account that cannot reach beyond the work it legitimately does.

Is GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f 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 GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f?

GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.8%, placing it in the 54th 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 GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f?

GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f 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.

When was GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-v5ff-9q35-q26f was published on June 16, 2026 and was last updated on July 20, 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

Summary

The "Shareable Playground" (or "Public Flows" in code) contains a critical RCE vulnerability. Simply sharing a flow exposes the deployment to RCE risk by authenticated users.

Tested on commit 2d67402b1dbaefcbce85a244d4a6cd5e4bda1cfe

Details

Shareable Playground feature works by enabling the execution of workflows by unauthenticated users, by accessing a link. Specifically, it enables the route /api/v1/build_public_tmp to execute any public flow, given a public flow ID. When the route executes the flow, it allows for providing arbitrary custom Python code as the nodes code, inside the JSON payload!

The vulnerable field is data.nodes[X].data.node.template.code.value. See PoC for an example.

PoC

Reproduction:

Create a new flow and add a Chat Input node to it
Share the flow ("Shareable Playground")
Access the public link with the browser developers tools open and execute the flow.
Find the /api/v1/build_public_tmp route and copy as cURL
Edit the data.nodes[X].data.node.template.code.value JSON field with any python code and run the cURL command.

Example PoC (replace flow ID with the correct one), and download test_with_python.json:

curl 'http://localhost:7860/api/v1/build_public_tmp/<flow-id>/flow?start_component_id=ChatInput-syEJp&log_builds=false&event_delivery=streaming' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -b 'client_id=anything' \
  --data-raw "$(cat test_with_python.json)"

Search for touch /tmp/pwned in the test_with_python.json and edit for any other code.

The stacktrace for the code executed is:
