Authenticated Python execution via pre-approval validation
Published Aug 5, 2026 · Updated Aug 5, 2026
Code injection in IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.3 allows remote authenticated users to execute Python during Agentic Assistant validation. The validation path treats LLM-generated component text as trusted code and executes it in the backend before approval. Access to the Agentic Assistant and influence over model output are required, and execution can read files, contact network services, or exfiltrate data as the backend process.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=1.0.0 <=1.10.3
