CVE-2026-27497
n8n is an open source workflow automation platform. Prior to versions 2.10.1, 2.9.3, and 1.123.22, an authenticated user with permission to create or modify workflows could leverage the Merge node's SQL query mode to execute arbitrary code and write arbitrary files on the n8n server. The issues have been fixed in n8n versions 2.10.1, 2.9.3, and 1.123.22. Users should upgrade to one of these versions or later to remediate all known vulnerabilities. If upgrading is not immediately possible, administrators should consider the following temporary mitigations.
Leer descripción completaMostrar menos
Limit workflow creation and editing permissions to fully trusted users only, and/or disable the Merge node by adding `n8n-nodes-base.merge` to the `NODES_EXCLUDE` environment variable. These workarounds do not fully remediate the risk and should only be used as short-term mitigation measures.

Antes de las versiones 2.10.1, 2.9.3 y 1.123.22, un usuario autenticado con permiso para crear o modificar flujos de trabajo podría aprovechar el modo de consulta SQL del nodo Merge para ejecutar código arbitrario y escribir archivos arbitrarios en el servidor n8n.

Los usuarios deben actualizar a una de estas versiones o posteriores para remediar todas las vulnerabilidades conocidas. Si la actualización no es posible de inmediato, los administradores deben considerar las siguientes mitigaciones temporales. Limitar los permisos de creación y edición de flujos de trabajo solo a usuarios de plena confianza, y/o deshabilitar el nodo Merge añadiendo 'n8n-nodes-base.merge' a la variable de entorno 'NODES_EXCLUDE'. Estas soluciones provisionales no remedian completamente el riesgo y solo deben usarse como medidas de mitigación a corto plazo."
