NVD description
n8n before 1.123.64, 2.x before 2.29.8, and before 2.30.1 contains a DOM-based cross-site scripting vulnerability in the HTML preview, which renders execution output into an iframe srcdoc without the sandbox attribute. A sanitizer bypass allows injected script to execute same-origin as the editor. When a victim opens the preview, the script can call authenticated APIs using the victim's session. An account with global:member privileges can exploit the issue.
What to do
- Upgrade n8n to
1.123.64or later (or the patched release of your branch: 2.29.8). - Do not expose the component's API or UI to the internet without authentication in front of it.
