Official description
IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.1 can allow an attacker to access another user's private vector documents by creating their own flow with matching Chroma persist_directory and collection_name values. The attacker receives exact victim content in their workflow output despite having no authorization to read the victim's flow. Additionally, the attacker can pollute the victim's collection by inserting their own documents into the shared namespace.

The underlying weakness: .NET Misconfiguration: Use of Impersonation
Allowing a.NET application to run at potentially escalated levels of access to the underlying operating and file systems can be dangerous and result in various forms of attacks.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Run the application with limited privilege to the underlying operating and file system.
