CVE-2026-69251 FlowiseAI CVE debrief
CVE-2026-69251 Flowise Critical Vulnerability: Arbitrary Code Execution via TypeORM DataSource Options. Flowise, a drag & drop user interface for building customized large language model flows, has a critical vulnerability (CVE-2026-69251) that allows for arbitrary code execution on the server. This vulnerability exists in the record manager and agent memory nodes, specifically in the MySQLRecordManager, PostgresRecordManager, SQLiteRecordManager, MySQLAgentMemory, and AgentMemory components. These components allow users to set arbitrary TypeORM DataSource options through the additionalConfig input, which can lead to loading local JavaScript files and ultimately, arbitrary code. To
