Code Injection in flowise-components (CVE-2026-69256)

Summary

Code injection in flowise-components (CVE-2026-69256). Successful exploitation can lead to full system takeover. Exploitable via pyodide. Mitigation: upgrade to 3.1.3 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

Summary

The CSVAgent node was observed to allow users to write Python code which gets executed via pyodide. The original intent was to allow users to utilise the pandas library for CSV processing. Although there is a denylist that checks for dangerous Python constructs from being passed in, pandas has a read_pickle() function that deserialises a pickled payload and this can be leveraged to achieve code execution.

Details

The affected file is the CSVAgent node, found in: flowise-components/nodes/agents/CSVAgent/CSVAgent.ts.

try {
    const code = `import pandas as pd
import base64
from io import StringIO
import json

base64_string = "${base64String}"

decoded_data = base64.b64decode(base64_string)

csv_data = StringIO(decoded_data.decode('utf-8'))

df = pd.${customReadCSVFunc} <1>
my_dict = df.dtypes.astype(str).to_dict()
print(my_dict)
json.dumps(my_dict)`
    dataframeColDict = await pyodide.runPythonAsync(code)
} catch (error) {
    throw new Error(error)
}

At <1>, the customReadCSVFunc is supplied by the user. This input goes through input validation that denies dangerous Python constructs from being passed in:

const FORBIDDEN_PATTERNS: Array<{ pattern: RegExp; reason: string }> = [
    // Imports (the executor pre-imports pandas and numpy; LLM code must not add any imports)
    { pattern: /\bfrom\s+\S+\s+import\b/g, reason: 'import statement (from...import)'…

❓ What is the problem

Arbitrary code execution (CWE-94) exists in flowise-components. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via pyodide.

📍 Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of flowise-components. Attack surface: pyodide / pandas / CSVAgent / customReadCSVFunc.

🔥 Severity

Severity: High (CVSS 8.8/10). Successful exploitation can lead to full system takeover.

🔧 How to fix

Update to 3.1.3.

🛡️ Workaround

Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

🔍 Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Run grep -r 'flowise-components' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify
    grep -r 'flowise-components' . | 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-components を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 2
    Apply patch patch
    Upgrade flowise-components to 3.1.3

    ステージング環境で 3.1.3 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。

  3. 3
    Post-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。
