CVE-2024-48061: 
Homebrew vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Langflow version 1.0.18 and earlier contains a Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on the local machine. The vulnerability exists because components with code functionality run directly on the local machine without proper sandboxing protection (NVD, GitHub Gist). The vulnerability was disclosed on November 4, 2024.

The vulnerability stems from insufficient isolation of components that execute code in the Langflow application. Any component that provides code functionality can be exploited since these components execute directly on the local machine without proper sandbox restrictions. The vulnerability has received a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 CRITICAL (Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) and is classified under CWE-94 (Improper Control of Generation of Code) (NVD).

The vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands remotely on affected systems. This can lead to unauthorized system access, data manipulation, and complete system compromise. The high CVSS score of 9.8 indicates critical severity with potential for complete system takeover (GitHub Gist).

Users should upgrade to a version newer than 1.0.18 when available. As this is a critical security issue, it is recommended to disable or restrict access to any components with code execution capabilities until a patch can be applied (GitHub Gist).
