An authenticated user with read-only access to a workflow can trigger a real evaluation test run, causing the workflow to execute via the internal workflow runner and resulting in unintended outbound API calls, data mutations, or other side effects in connected downstream systems. The issue primarily affects instances using the Evaluations feature where RBAC project roles grant workflow:read without workflow:execute.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-07-08T14:17:17.553+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-29T19:17:23.18+00:00","affected":[],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 4.0 · disclosure@vulncheck.com · Secondary","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:L/SI:L/SA:L/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X","score":5.3,"severity":"MEDIUM"},{"system":"CVSS 3.1 · disclosure@vulncheck.com · Secondary","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","score":7.4,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n/security/advisories/GHSA-hv7x-3x78-gx53","https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/n8n-incorrect-oauth-scope-validation-in-workflow-test-run-endpoint"],"sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-56776","license":"NIST NVD usage terms; underlying source attribution retained","enrichment":{"sourceStatus":"Analyzed","weaknesses":["CWE-863"],"productCriteria":["cpe:2.3:a:n8n:n8n:*:*:*:*:*:node.js:*:*"],"sourceDates":{"published":"2026-07-08T14:17:17.553","lastModified":"2026-10-29T19:17:23.180"},"relatedAdvisories":[],"note":"NVD analysis and CPE criteria are source context, not proof that a package or your environment is affected.
