Attack profile from CVSS 4.0 · CNA. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-94.
Summary
Langflow 1.0.16 before 1.12.0 and 0.0.94 before 1.12.0 contain an unsafe eval() vulnerability in schema.py that allows authenticated attackers to achieve code execution by placing a Python object with a malicious __repr__ method into component input options lists. The eval() sink is triggered when a component is converted into a LangChain tool via ComponentToolkit.get_tools(), including during custom component saves through the API, by interpolating options into a Literal type string that is passed directly to eval() without safe evaluation controls.
