CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

The vulnerability affects n8n's JavaScript task runner, where a shared module cache allows a user to manipulate cached modules, potentially compromising the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of other users' Code-node executions. This issue is particularly relevant for multi-user instances utilizing the JS task runner with built-in or external modules enabled. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize remediation to safeguard against cross-user isolation breaches.

Original NVD Description

n8n's JavaScript task runner shared a single module cache across all users' Code-node executions. In affected versions (before 1.123.67, 2.31.5, and 2.32.1), a user able to run a Code node could poison a cached module and thereby alter other users' Code-node executions on the same runner, affecting their confidentiality, integrity, or availability. This is a cross-user isolation break within a single n8n instance and does not constitute a sandbox escape or remote code execution. Only multi-user instances running the JS task runner with built-in or external modules enabled are affected.
