FINDING 1: Missing Authorization on Execution Update Endpoint

Severity: HIGH (CVSS ~7.5)
Type: CWE-862 (Missing Authorization)
File: packages/server/src/routes/executions/index.ts:11

Description: The PUT /api/v1/executions/:id endpoint lacks the checkAnyPermission() middleware that protects all other execution endpoints (GET, DELETE). Any authenticated user — regardless of their assigned permissions — can modify any execution record.

Evidence:

// Line 7 - GET has permission check
router.get('/', checkAnyPermission('executions:view'), executionController.getAllExecutions)

// Line 11 - PUT has NO permission check
router.put(['/', '/:id'], executionController.updateExecution)  // <-- MISSING checkAnyPermission

// Line 14 - DELETE has permission checkadvisory_1_execution_auth_bypass
router.delete('/:id', checkAnyPermission('executions:delete'), executionController.deleteExecutions)

Impact: Privilege escalation. A low-privileged user with any valid API key can modify execution state, data, and metadata of any execution in their workspace. Could be used to manipulate workflow execution results or inject data.

Reproduction:

curl -X PUT https://TARGET/api/v1/executions/EXECUTION_I…

Attack vector: remote (network-reachable) / no user interaction
Attack surface: PUT /api/v1/executions/
Patched: 3.1.3 — apply immediately
Plan: 1) Audit SBOM/dependencies, 2) Stage→prod upgrade, 3) Add WAF/proxy monitoring on affected endpoints, 4) Hunt IOCs in logs.
Refs: see the GHSA / vendor advisory / patched release linked on this page.

❓ What is the problem

A vulnerability (CWE-862) exists in flowise. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via PUT /api/v1/executions/.

📍 Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of flowise. Attack surface: PUT /api/v1/executions/.

🔥 Severity

Severity: Medium (CVSS 6.5/10). Data can be tampered with by attackers.

🔧 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 PUT /api/v1/executions/ requests with malformed payloads or SQL meta-characters. Run grep -r 'flowise' . 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' . | 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。

  2. 2
    Hunt for indicators of compromise detect
    grep 'PUT /api/v1/executions/' /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep -E '(unusual_payload|sqli_pattern)'

    アクセスログで PUT /api/v1/executions/ への異常なリクエスト (不正な認証ヘッダ・SQLメタ文字)を過去 30〜90日分捜索。WAF/SIEM があれば該当パスのアラート発火履歴を確認。

  3. 3
    Apply patch patch
    Upgrade flowise 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と、Step 2 で見つけた異常検知の続報チェックを含めること。

  4. 4
    Post-deployment verification verify
    Replay attack against PUT /api/v1/executions/ on staging to confirm patch closes the vector

    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 Step 2 と同じログクエリでアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
