Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in n8n-io n8n up to 1.123.82/2.41.3/2.42.0. This issue affects some unknown processing of the component AI Workflow Builder. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a prototype pollution vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-1321. The product receives input from an upstream component that specifies attributes that are to be initialized or updated in an object, but it does not properly control modifications of attributes of the object prototype. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

n8n before 1.123.83, 2.x before 2.41.4, and 2.42.x before 2.42.1 contains a prototype pollution vulnerability in the AI workflow builder, which merges workflow connections using node names as object members without checking for reserved keys. Authenticated users can create nodes named __proto__ through the API and invoke the connect-nodes operation to pollute the global object prototype, disrupting the instance until restart.

It is possible to read the advisory at github.com. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2026-110848 since 10/15/2026. The exploitation is known to be easy.
