CVE-2026-33497 Details
Description
Langflow is a tool for building and deploying AI-powered agents and workflows. Prior to version 1.7.1, in the download_profile_picture function of the /profile_pictures/{folder_name}/{file_name} endpoint, the folder_name and file_name parameters are not strictly filtered, which allows the secret_key to be read across directories. Version 1.7.1 contains a patch.
A directory traversal vulnerability has been identified in Langflow versions prior to 1.7.1. The issue arises in the 'download_profile_picture' function of the '/profile_pictures/{folder_name}/{file_name}' endpoint, where the 'folder_name' and 'file_name' parameters are not properly validated. This lack of strict filtering enables the reading of the 'secret_key' across different directories. The 'secret_key' is crucial for JWT authentication, and its exposure could allow attackers to forge authentication tokens and gain unauthorized access to the system.
Users are advised to update Langflow to version 1.7.1 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched.
