Summary
Missing chat flow id validation allows an attacker to access arbitrary file.
Details
Commit https://github.com/FlowiseAI/Flowise/commit/8bd3de41533de78e4ef6c980e5704a1f9cb7ae6f and https://github.com/FlowiseAI/Flowise/commit/c2b830f279e454e8b758da441016b2234f220ac7 added check for filename when handling file upload operations to prevent path traversal, and additional validation of chatflowId and chatId from route /api/v1/attachments. In some cases, however, chatflowId and chatId are not validated to ensure they are UUIDs or numbers, which may lead to security issues.
Case 1
When creating new chatflow via /api/v1/chatflows, function addBase64FilesToStorage is called if there exists base64 file data. Although the filename is sanitized, the chatflowid comes from request body directly without any validation. An attacker could exploit the path traversal here to write arbitrary file with controlled data.
export const addBase64FilesToStorage = async (fileBase64: string, chatflowid: string, fileNames: string[]) => {
// ...
} else {
const dir = path.join(getStoragePath(), chatflowid) // path traversal here
if (!fs.existsSync(dir)) {
fs.mkdirSync(dir, { recursive: true })
}
const splitDataURI = fileBase64.split(',')
const filename = splitDataURI.pop()?.split(':')[1] ?? ''
const bf = Buffer.from(splitDataURI.pop() || '', 'base64')
const sanitizedFile…

-
1Identify exposure identify
grep -r 'flowise' . | grep -v node_modulesリポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で
flowiseを grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。 -
2Apply patch patch
Upgrade flowise to 3.0.6ステージング環境で 3.0.6 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスを含めること。
-
3Post-deployment verification verify
Confirm patched version is live in productionパッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
