CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

Versions of n8n prior to 1.123.67 are vulnerable to a path traversal flaw in the Git node, enabling authenticated users to bypass repository-path containment checks during fetch, pull, and push-tags operations. This vulnerability allows attackers with workflow creation and execution rights to access local paths outside the sandbox, potentially exposing sensitive files and repository history. Organizations using n8n should prioritize patching to mitigate the risk of unauthorized data access.

Original NVD Description

n8n versions before 1.123.67 contain a path traversal vulnerability in the Git node's fetch, pull, and push-tags operations that allows authenticated users to bypass repository-path containment checks. Attackers with workflow create/execute rights can point allowlisted remote configurations at local paths outside the sandbox to pull arbitrary git repositories and read their files and history.
