NVD description

Langflow is a tool for building and deploying AI-powered agents and workflows. Prior to version 1.7.1, in the download_profile_picture function of the /profile_pictures/{folder_name}/{file_name} endpoint, the folder_name and file_name parameters are not strictly filtered, which allows the secret_key to be read across directories. Version 1.7.1 contains a patch.

Code-Pathfinder caught it while I was running variant analysis across various open-source projects. The same bug class sitting in a different endpoint. Now fixed in v1.9.0 :) Technical details in 👇🏻 https://codepathfinder.dev/blog/langflow-knowledge-bases-path-traversal-variant-analysis
