CVE-2026-46441: Flowise Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
HIGHCVE-2026-46441 is a HIGH remote code execution vulnerability (CWE-284: Improper Access Control) affecting Flowise libraries in the npm ecosystem. The issue involves flowiseai has mass assignment in assistant update endpoint that allows cross-workspace resource reassignment. Remediation is available by upgrading affected packages to version 3.1.2.
CVE-2026-46441 at a Glance
How to Fix CVE-2026-46441
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Flowise dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
npm install flowise@3.1.2
Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
npm ls flowise
How to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2026-46441, inspect your project dependencies using npm:
npm ls flowise
Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Flowise in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 3.1.2), your application is affected.
Note: The npm ls flowise command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.

"summary" : "FlowiseAI has Mass Assignment in Assistant Update Endpoint that Allows Cross-Workspace Resource Reassignment",
"details" : "### Summary\nA Mass Assignment vulnerability exists in the assistant update endpoint of FlowiseAI.\n\nThe endpoint allows authenticated users to modify server-controlled properties such as workspaceId, createdDate, and updatedDate when updating an assistant resource.\n\nDue to missing server-side validation and authorization checks, an attacker can manipulate the workspaceId field and reassign assistants to arbitrary workspaces. This breaks tenant isolation in multi-workspace environments.\n\n### Details\nThe endpoint responsible for updating assistants:\n\n**PUT /api/v1/assistants/{assistantId}**\n\naccepts a JSON request body containing assistant metadata.\n\nHowever, the server does not restrict which properties may be modified by the client. As a result, user-controlled request bodies can include additional fields that should normally be controlled only by the backend.\n\nServer-controlled fields that can be manipulated include:\n\n1. workspaceId\n2. createdDate\n3. updatedDate\n\nThese fields appear to be directly mapped to the underlying database entity without strict DTO whitelisting or authorization checks.\n\nFor example, the following request body was accepted:\n\n```json\n{\n \"details\": \"\",\n \"credential\": \"11ca7fef-c9b1-4c87-aa54-e547aed8a249\",\n \"iconSrc\": null,\n \"type\": \"CUSTOM\",\n \"createdDate\": \"2026-03-06T17:31:04.000Z\",\n \"updatedDate\": \"2026-03-06T17:31:55.000Z\",\n \"workspaceId\": \"11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555\"\n}\n```\n\nThis indicates that internal, server-controlled properties can be modified by an authenticated user.\n\n### PoC\n\n1. Authenticate to the Flowise interface.\n2. Capture the request used to update an assistant:\n\n```http\nPUT /api/v1/assistants/<ASSISTANT_ID>\nContent-Type: application/json\n\nModify the request body by injecting server-controlled fields:\n\n{\n \"details\": \"\",\n \"credential\": \"11ca7fef-c9b1-4c87-aa54-e547aed8a249\",\n \"iconSrc\": null,\n \"type\": \"CUSTOM\",\n \"createdDate\": \"2026-03-06T17:31:04.000Z\",\n \"updatedDate\": \"2026-03-06T17:31:55.000Z\",\n \"workspaceId\": \"11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555\"\n}\n\n```\n3.Send the request.\n\nObserve that the response accepts and persists the attacker-controlled workspaceId and metadata fields.\n\n### Impact\nThis vulnerability allows authenticated users to manipulate internal attributes of assistant resources.\n\nConfirmed impacts include:\n\n- Cross-workspace reassignment of assistants (workspaceId)\n- Unauthorized modification of metadata (createdDate, updatedDate)\n\nIn multi-tenant deployments, this may allow an attacker to move assistants between workspaces without authorization, breaking tenant isolation boundaries.",
