CVE-2026-54306

n8n heeft meerdere kwetsbaarheden verholpen in het n8n workflow automation platform, specifiek in versies voor 1.123.55, 2.24.0, 2.25.7, 2.26.1 en 2.26.2.

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in n8n ausnutzen, um beliebigen Code auszuführen, Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen, SQL-Injection- und Cross-Site-Scripting-Angriffe durchzuführen, Daten zu manipulieren, einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand zu verursachen oder vertrauliche Informationen offenzulegen, was weitere Angriffe einschließlich einer Rechteausweitung ermöglichen kann.

## Impact A prototype pollution vulnerability allowed a crafted public webhook payload to inject attacker-controlled fields into workflow data during internal object copying. These fields could be surfaced and consumed as normal values by downstream built-in nodes. Where a workflow combines a public webhook with action nodes that consume the resulting fields, an attacker could cause the workflow to act as a confused deputy — targeting unintended records or issuing outbound requests using the workflow owner's configured credentials. ## Patches The issue has been fixed in n8n versions 2.25.7, and 2.26.2. Users should upgrade to one of these versions or later to remediate the vulnerability. ## Workarounds If upgrading is not immediately possible, administrators should consider the following temporary mitigations: - Avoid exposing public (unauthenticated) webhook workflows that pass incoming data through transform nodes into action nodes with sensitive credentials or database operations. - Limit workflow creation and editing permissions to fully trusted users only. These workarounds do not fully remediate the risk and should only be used as short-term mitigation measures.
