n8n - Authorization Bypass in Public API Execution Retry Endpoint

Collected exploitation and prediction evidence

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

Published

n8n before 2.25.7 and 2.26.x before 2.26.2 contains an authorization bypass in the Public API execution retry endpoint, which authorizes access using the workflow:read scope instead of workflow:execute. An authenticated user with read-only access to a shared workflow can use the Public API to retry executions of that workflow, bypassing the intended permission boundary between read and execute access. This affects instances where workflows are shared with other users or across projects.

## Impact The Public API endpoint for retrying executions authorized access using `workflow:read` rather than `workflow:execute`. An authenticated user with read-only access to a shared workflow could use the Public API to retry executions of that workflow, bypassing the intended permission boundary between read and execute access. This issue affects instances where workflows are shared with other users or across projects. ## Patches The issue has been fixed in n8n versions 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. - Restrict network access to the n8n Public API to trusted users only. These workarounds do not fully remediate the risk and should only be used as short-term mitigation measures.
