CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

Versions of n8n prior to 2.34.1 are vulnerable to a credential validation bypass in the MCP create_workflow_from_code tool, specifically when the authentication type is configured as an expression. This flaw allows attackers with a valid MCP Bearer API key and knowledge of a target credential ID to create unauthorized cross-project credential references, potentially leading to unauthorized access across different workflows. Organizations using n8n should prioritize updating to the latest version to mitigate this risk.
