GHSA-pmqw-72cg-wx85: n8n: Credential Exfiltration via Permission Bypass

Impact A member-level user with editor access to a shared workflow could reference credentials they do not own via specific public API endpoints. Credential ownership checks were only enforced partially leading to cross-user credential access. This issue affects instances where workflow sharing is enabled and at least one workflow has been shared with a member-level user as an Editor. Patches The issue has been fixed in n8n versions 1.123.55, 2.25.7, and 2.26.2. Users should upgrade to one of these versions or later to remediate the vulnerability. Workarounds If upgrading is not immediately possible, administrators should consider the following temporary mitigations: - Restrict workflow sharing to fully trusted users only. - Audit shared workflows for unexpected credential references or recent modifications. These workarounds do not fully remediate the risk and should only be used as short-term mitigation measures. n8n has adopted CVSS 4.0 as primary score for all security advisories.
