GHSA-qqw9-2vj9-hx7r at a Glance
How to Fix GHSA-qqw9-2vj9-hx7r
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Duplicate Advisory dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
pip install langflow>=Latest secure release
Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
pip show langflow
How to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Python environment is affected by GHSA-qqw9-2vj9-hx7r, inspect your installed packages using pip:
pip show langflow
Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Duplicate Advisory in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.
Note: The pip show langflow command checks currently installed packages in your active Python environment.

This link is maintained to preserve external references.\n\n## Original Description\nlangflow-ai langflow v1.9.3 is affected by: Code Injection. The impact is: execute arbitrary code (remote). The component is: src/backend/base/langflow/api/v1/validate.py:validate-post_validate_code-a-real-authenticated-http-post-to-api-v1. The attack vector is: Attack surface: HTTP or browser-backed service path. A public-facing route accepts raw Python source and forwards it into a server-side compile/exec validation path without any visible entitlement guard. ¶¶ A weakness has been identified in langflow-ai langflow up to 1.9.3. langflow contains a code injection vulnerability in validate-post_validate_code-a-real-authenticated-http-post-to-api-v1 (src/backend/base/langflow/api/v1/validate.py:13). An authenticated attacker can execute arbitrary Python code on the server by submitting malicious code to the /api/v1/validate/code endpoint, which directly executes user-supplied code without sandboxing or security controls.",
