CVE-2026-46441

A Mass Assignment vulnerability exists in the assistant update endpoint of FlowiseAI.

The endpoint allows authenticated users to modify server-controlled properties such as workspaceId, createdDate, and updatedDate when updating an assistant resource.

Due to missing server-side validation and authorization checks, an attacker can manipulate the workspaceId field and reassign assistants to arbitrary workspaces. This breaks tenant isolation in multi-workspace environments.

Details

The endpoint responsible for updating assistants:

PUT /api/v1/assistants/{assistantId}

accepts a JSON request body containing assistant metadata.

However, the server does not restrict which properties may be modified by the client. As a result, user-controlled request bodies can include additional fields that should normally be controlled only by the backend.

Server-controlled fields that can be manipulated include:

1. workspaceId
2. createdDate
3. updatedDate

These fields appear to be directly mapped to the underlying database entity without strict DTO whitelisting or authorization checks.

For example, the following request body was accepted:

{
  "details": "",
  "credential": "11ca7fef-c9b1-4c87-aa54-e547aed8a249",
  "iconSrc": null,
  "type": "CUSTOM",
  "createdDate": "2026-03-06T17:31:04.000Z",
  "updatedDate": "2026-03-06T17:31:55.000Z",
  "workspaceId": "11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555"
}

This indicates that internal, server-controlled properties can be modified by an authenticated user.

PoC

1. Authenticate to the Flowise interface.
2. Capture the request used to update an assistant:

PUT /api/v1/assistants/<ASSISTANT_ID>
Content-Type: application/json

Modify the request body by injecting server-controlled fields:

{
  "details": "",
  "credential": "11ca7fef-c9b1-4c87-aa54-e547aed8a249",
  "iconSrc": null,
  "type": "CUSTOM",
  "createdDate": "2026-03-06T17:31:04.000Z",
  "updatedDate": "2026-03-06T17:31:55.000Z",
  "workspaceId": "11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555"
}

3.Send the request.

Observe that the response accepts and persists the attacker-controlled workspaceId and metadata fields.

This vulnerability allows authenticated users to manipulate internal attributes of assistant resources.

Confirmed impacts include:

• Cross-workspace reassignment of assistants (workspaceId)
• Unauthorized modification of metadata (createdDate, updatedDate)

In multi-tenant deployments, this may allow an attacker to move assistants between workspaces without authorization, breaking tenant isolation boundaries.

Kodem intelligence

1. What is CVE-2026-46441? CVE-2026-46441 is a high-severity security vulnerability in flowise (npm), affecting versions <= 3.1.1. It is fixed in 3.1.2.
2. Which versions of flowise are affected by CVE-2026-46441? flowise (npm) versions <= 3.1.1 is affected.
3. Is there a fix for CVE-2026-46441? Yes. CVE-2026-46441 is fixed in 3.1.2. Upgrade to this version or later.
4. Is CVE-2026-46441 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2026-46441 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

5. What actually determines whether CVE-2026-46441 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
6. How do I fix CVE-2026-46441? Upgrade flowise to 3.1.2 or later.
