### Impact On 8 September 2025, the npm publishing account for `color-string` was taken over after a phishing attack. Version `2.1.1` was published, functionally identical to the previous patch version, but with a malware payload added attempting to redirect cryptocurrency transactions to the attacker's own addresses from within browser environments. Local environments, server environments, command line applications, etc. are not affected. If the package was used in a browser context (e.g. a direct `<script>` inclusion, or via a bundling tool such as Babel, Rollup, Vite, Next.js, etc.) there is a chance the malware still exists and such bundles will need to be rebuilt. The malware seemingly only targets cryptocurrency transactions and wallets such as MetaMask. See references below for more information on the payload. ### Patches npm removed the offending package from the registry over the course of the day on 8 September, preventing further downloads from npm proper.

### Impact A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability that affects all users running the HackMD MCP server in HTTP mode. Attackers could exploit this vulnerability by passing arbitrary `hackmdApiUrl` values through HTTP headers (`Hackmd-Api-Url`) or base64-encoded JSON query parameters. This allows malicious users to: - Redirect API calls to internal network services - Potentially access sensitive internal endpoints - Perform network reconnaissance through the server - Bypass network access controls The vulnerability affects the HTTP transport mode specifically - stdio mode is not impacted as it only accepts requests from stdio. ### Patches The vulnerability has been patched in version `1.5.0`. Users should: 1. Update to the latest version of the HackMD MCP server 2. Set the `ALLOWED_HACKMD_API_URLS` environment variable to restrict allowed HackMD API endpoints 3. If not set, the server will default to only allowing the official HackMD API URL (`https://api.hackmd.io/v1`)...

### Impact A vulnerability in Ghost's oEmbed mechanism allows staff users to exfiltrate data from internal systems via SSRF. ### Vulnerable versions This vulnerability is present in Ghost v5.99.0 to v5.130.3 to and Ghost v6.0.0 to v6.0.8. ### Patches v5.130.4 and v6.0.9 contain a fix for this issue. ### References The original report will be available here: https://help.fluidattacks.com/portal/en/kb/articles/regida We thank Cristian Vargas for discovering and disclosing this vulnerability responsibly. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory, email us at [security@ghost.org](mailto:security@ghost.org).

### Summary The Custom MCPs feature is designed to execute OS commands, for instance, using tools like `npx` to spin up local MCP Servers. However, Flowise's inherent authentication and authorization model is minimal and lacks role-based access controls (RBAC). Furthermore, the default installation of Flowise operates without authentication unless explicitly configured using the `FLOWISE_USERNAME` and `FLOWISE_PASSWORD` environment variables. This combination presents a significant security risk, potentially allowing users on the platform to execute unsandboxed system commands. This can result in Remote Code Execution (RCE) and complete compromise of the running platform container or server. ### PoC 1. Follow the provided instructions for running the app using Docker Compose (or other methods of your choosing such as `npx`, `pnpm`, etc): https://github.com/FlowiseAI/Flowise?tab=readme-ov-file#-docker 2. Create a new file named `payload.json` somewhere in your machine, with the fo...

### Summary Missing chat flow id validation allows an attacker to access arbitrary file. ### Details Commit https://github.com/FlowiseAI/Flowise/commit/8bd3de41533de78e4ef6c980e5704a1f9cb7ae6f and https://github.com/FlowiseAI/Flowise/commit/c2b830f279e454e8b758da441016b2234f220ac7 added check for `filename` when handling file upload operations to prevent path traversal, and additional validation of `chatflowId` and `chatId` from route `/api/v1/attachments`. In some cases, however, `chatflowId` and `chatId` are not validated to ensure they are UUIDs or numbers, which may lead to security issues. **Case 1** When creating new chatflow via `/api/v1/chatflows`, function `addBase64FilesToStorage` is called if there exists base64 file data. Although the `filename` is sanitized, the `chatflowid` comes from request body directly without any validation. An attacker could exploit the path traversal here to write arbitrary file with controlled data. ```typescript export const addBase64Files...

### Summary An arbitrary file read vulnerability in the `chatId` parameter supplied to both the `/api/v1/get-upload-file` and `/api/v1/openai-assistants-file/download` endpoints allows unauthenticated users to read unintended files on the local filesystem. In the default Flowise configuration this allows reading of the local sqlite db and subsequent compromise of all database content. ### Details Both the `/api/v1/get-upload-file` and `/api/v1/openai-assistants-file/download` endpoints accept the `chatId` parameter and pass this to a subsequent call to streamStorageFile(). ``` const chatflowId = req.query.chatflowId as string const chatId = req.query.chatId as string const fileName = req.query.fileName as string ... const fileStream = await streamStorageFile(chatflowId, chatId, fileName, orgId) ``` While streamStorageFile validates that the chatflowId is a UUID and strips traversal sequences from fileName, it performs no validation of chatId. ``` // Validate chatflowId ...

## Description ### Cause of the Vulnerability The `CustomMCP` node allows users to input configuration settings for connecting to an external MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. This node parses the user-provided `mcpServerConfig` string to build the MCP server configuration. However, during this process, it executes JavaScript code without any security validation. Specifically, inside the `convertToValidJSONString` function, user input is directly passed to the `Function()` constructor, which evaluates and executes the input as JavaScript code. Since this runs with full Node.js runtime privileges, it can access dangerous modules such as `child_process` and `fs`. ### Vulnerability Flow 1. **User Input Received**: Input is provided via the API endpoint `/api/v1/node-load-method/customMCP` through the `mcpServerConfig` parameter. 2. **Variable Substitution**: The `substituteVariablesInString` function replaces template variables like `$vars.xxx`, but no security filtering is applie...

### Summary --- A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability was discovered in the `/api/v1/fetch-links` endpoint of the Flowise application. This vulnerability allows an attacker to use the Flowise server as a proxy to access internal network web services and explore their link structures. The impact includes the potential exposure of sensitive internal administrative endpoints. ### Details --- #### Vulnerability Overview The `fetch-links` feature in Flowise is designed to extract links from external websites or XML sitemaps. It performs an HTTP request from the server to the user-supplied URL and parses the response (HTML or XML) to extract and return links. The issue arises because the feature performs these HTTP requests **without validating the user-supplied URL**. In particular, when the `relativeLinksMethod` parameter is set to `webCrawl` or `xmlScrape`, the server directly calls the `fetch()` function with the provided URL, making it vulnerable to SSRF attacks. ###...
