CVE-2026-56273 Details
Description
Flowise before 3.1.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability in Faiss and SimpleStore vector store implementations that accept unsanitized basePath parameters from authenticated users. Attackers with valid API tokens can write vector store data to arbitrary filesystem locations, potentially enabling code execution or data exfiltration.
A path traversal vulnerability has been identified in Flowise versions prior to 3.1.0, specifically within the Faiss and SimpleStore vector store implementations. These versions accept unsanitized basePath parameters from authenticated users. Exploitation of this vulnerability allows attackers with valid API tokens to write vector store data to arbitrary locations on the server filesystem. This could potentially lead to code execution or data exfiltration.
Users are advised to update Flowise to version 3.1.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched.
