CVE-2026-48520 langflow-ai CVE debrief
CVE-2026-48520 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Langflow's AI-powered agents and workflows. The 'Shareable Playground' feature, also known as 'Public Flows', allows public execution of flows, which can lead to arbitrary file reads. An attacker can exploit this by making a flow public and including a list of files to be read by Langflow and fed into the LLM. The vulnerability is fixed in version 1.10.0. Langflow users should update to the latest version to prevent potential exploitation. Additionally, defenders should review their Langflow configurations and ensure that only authorized flows are made public.
