Who should care
Users of FlowiseAI Flowise, especially those in multi-workspace environments, should be aware of this vulnerability and take action to protect themselves.
Technical summary
A mass assignment vulnerability exists in the variable update endpoint of FlowiseAI Flowise. The endpoint allows authenticated users to modify server-controlled properties such as workspaceId, createdDate, and updatedDate when updating a variable resource. Due to missing server-side validation and authorization checks, an attacker can manipulate the workspaceId field and reassign variables to arbitrary workspaces. This behavior may break tenant isolation in multi-workspace environments.
Defensive priority
high
Recommended defensive actions
- Upgrade to FlowiseAI Flowise version 3.1.2 or later.
- Review and restrict access to the variable update endpoint.
- Implement additional validation and authorization checks for workspaceId and other server-controlled properties.
