Information disclosure via unrestricted cross-origin requests
Published Jul 1, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Origin validation error in Flowise 1.4.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to read sensitive data through cross-origin requests. The server registers the Express cors() middleware without an origin allowlist, returning Access-Control-Allow-Origin for any requesting site. Default unauthenticated deployments expose Flowise responses to attacker-controlled origins, and chaining the flaw with path injection reads server files.
