Langflow: Unauthenticated RCE in Shareable Playgrounds
Summary
The "Shareable Playground" (or "Public Flows" in code) contains a critical RCE vulnerability. Simply sharing a flow exposes the deployment to RCE risk by authenticated users.
Tested on commit 2d67402b1dbaefcbce85a244d4a6cd5e4bda1cfe
Details
Shareable Playground feature works by enabling the execution of workflows by unauthenticated users, by accessing a link.
Specifically, it enables the route /api/v1/build_public_tmp to execute any public flow, given a public flow ID.
When the route executes the flow, it allows for providing arbitrary custom Python code as the nodes code, inside the JSON payload!
The vulnerable field is data.nodes[X].data.node.template.code.value. See PoC for an example.
PoC
Reproduction:
- Create a new flow and add a Chat Input node to it
- Share the flow ("Shareable Playground")
- Access the public link with the browser developers tools open and execute the flow.
- Find the
/api/v1/build_public_tmproute and copy as cURL - Edit the
data.nodes[X].data.node.template.code.valueJSON field with any python code and run the cURL command.
Example PoC (replace flow ID with the correct one), and download test_with_python.json:
curl 'http://localhost:7860/api/v1/build_public_tmp/<flow-id>/flow?start_component_id=ChatInput-syEJp&log_builds=false&event_delivery=streaming' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-b 'client_id=anything' \
--data-raw "$(cat test_with_python.json)"Search for touch /tmp/pwned in the test_with_python.json and edit for any other code.
The stacktrace for the code executed is:
