Evidence used

  • No CISA KEV confirmation is currently recorded.
  • EPSS is 0.38% for the current model date.

Compensating controls

  • Validate the affected product branch and deploy the verified fixed release.
  • Restrict the affected network interface to trusted sources where business-safe.
  • Monitor vendor guidance and exploitation sources for a material change.

Verification

  1. Confirm that the asset runs n8n-io n8n and falls inside the recorded affected range.
  2. Verify the installed build against the product-specific fixed version after deployment.
  3. Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
  4. Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.
Mitigation target: As exposure requiresRemediation target: Within 365 days

This automated reassessment organises public evidence. It does not know asset exposure, business impact or control effectiveness and does not replace CVSS or a human risk decision.

EUVD-2026-63269

No EUVD known-exploited evidence

n8n before 1.123.69, 2.x before 2.33.4, and 2.x before 2.34.1 contain an allowed-domains bypass in the GraphQL node. When the node's Authentication parameter is set to expression mode, every authentication-gated credential selector is treated as active; if two credentials of different types are attached, the node enforces the allowed-domains policy of only the first credential while still attaching material from both. An authenticated user with workflow-authoring rights can thereby send a domain-restricted credential to an attacker-controlled endpoint, exfiltrating it with the leaked credential's permissions.

What, why and how

n8n before 1.123.69, 2.x before 2.33.4, and 2.x before 2.34.1 contain an allowed-domains bypass in the GraphQL node. When the node's Authentication parameter is set to expression mode, every authentication-gated credential selector is treated as active; if two credentials of different types are attached, the node enforces the allowed-domains policy of only the first credential while still attaching material from both. An authenticated user with workflow-authoring rights can thereby send a domain-restricted credential to an attacker-controlled endpoint, exfiltrating it with the leaked credential's permissions.

What

n8n before 1.123.69, 2.x before 2.33.4, and 2.x before 2.34.1 contain an allowed-domains bypass in the GraphQL node.

An authenticated user with workflow-authoring rights can thereby send a domain-restricted credential to an attacker-controlled endpoint, exfiltrating it with the leaked credential's permissions.

Why

The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data.

How

An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation with low privileges. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

Likely attack path
a network path → Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key → cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor

CWE-639: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key. The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data.
