How it works
- A remote user first needs a valid Langflow account.
- They can place custom components in a stored flow.
- Langflow does not properly check whether that user is allowed to use those components, so the flow can execute their Python code.
What to do
Check the Langflow installation's version and compare it with IBM's advisory. Versions 1.0.0 through 1.11.5 are in scope.
Upgrade IBM Langflow OSS to version 1.11.6, as IBM recommends in its security advisory.
