HIGHFlowise Fails to Invalidate Existing Sessions After Password Changes

Description
Summary
Failure to Invalidate Existing Sessions After Password Change (Persistent Session / Session Invalidity Failure).
Details
After a user changes their password, the application does not invalidate other active sessions or session tokens that were established before the change. An attacker who already has an active session (e.g., via a stolen session token, device left logged in, or other access) continues to be authenticated even after the legitimate user rotates credentials, allowing the attacker to retain access despite the user’s password change.
PoC
Repro steps:
- As logged in user on two browsers (ie. Chrome and Firefox, with incognito/private mode) https://cloud.flowiseai.com/account change password, on the Chrome for example
- Refresh the site on Firefox (second browser) - notice that still logged in (despite credentials were changed)
POC: Steps described above (in Repro steps) completed successfully.
Impact
Persistent unauthorized access despite credential rotation - undermines the primary purpose of password changes as a remediation step. Enables attackers with an active session (remote or physical access to a device) to continue acting as the user (confidentiality and integrity impact). If session tokens are not bound to the credential state, forced password changes won’t terminate attacker sessions.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for flowise. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update flowise to 3.0.10 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-x7rp-qj2h-ghgw 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 pinpoints whether GHSA-x7rp-qj2h-ghgw is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-x7rp-qj2h-ghgw. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-x7rp-qj2h-ghgw in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-x7rp-qj2h-ghgw across npm dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
