Flowise: Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs
CVE-2026-41264 is a critical-severity incomplete list of disallowed inputs vulnerability in Flowise from FlowiseAI, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected Flowise versions: < 3.1.0. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 1.79% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 79% of scored CVEs.
Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.
What to do
- Check which version of Flowise you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
- Read the advisory on github.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description
Flowise is a drag & drop user interface to build a customized large language model flow. Prior to 3.1.0, the specific flaw exists within the run method of the CSV_Agents class. The issue results from the lack of proper sandboxing when evaluating an LLM generated python script. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the user running the server. Using prompt injection techniques, an unauthenticated attacker with the ability to send prompts to a chatflow using the CSV Agent node may convince an LLM to respond with a malicious python script that executes attacker controlled commands on the Flowise server. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.0.

The underlying weakness: Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs
The product implements a protection mechanism that relies on a list of inputs (or properties of inputs) that are not allowed by policy or otherwise require other action to neutralize before additional processing takes place, but the list is incomplete.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Do not rely exclusively on detecting disallowed inputs. There are too many variants to encode a character, especially when different environments are used, so there is a high likelihood of missing some variants. Only use detection of disallowed inputs as a mechanism for detecting suspicious activity. Ensure that you are using other protection mechanisms that only identify good input - such as lists of allowed inputs - and ensure that you are properly encoding your outputs.
