CVE-2026-17631: IBM Langflow OSS server-side request forgery in flow components

CVE-2026-17631 · Severity: medium · CVSS 5 · Published 2026-09-04

IBM Langflow OSS is a flow-based application platform that allows users to build and execute workflows. Multiple flow components (LM Studio, Home Assistant, DeepSeek, Ollama, and others) accept user-supplied URLs and make server-side HTTP requests without proper validation, allowing an authenticated attacker to reach internal services, cloud metadata endpoints, or administrative interfaces. An attacker could exploit this to extract sensitive information from internal systems or cloud metadata services.

Technologies: Apple macOS, IBM Langflow OSS, Langflow, Linux Kernel, Microsoft Windows. Vendors: Apple, IBM, Langflow, Linux, Microsoft.

How is CVE-2026-17631 attacked?
It is attacked over the network.
Am I affected by CVE-2026-17631?
Check whether you run Apple macOS, IBM Langflow OSS, Langflow or one of the others listed at an affected version. Junglewise does that check for you around the clock: connect your code, cloud and domains, and it matches new vulnerabilities like this one against what you actually run and tells you when one reaches you.

Technical details

This is a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability (CWE-918) caused by missing URL validation in flow components that perform outbound HTTP requests. Multiple components (LM Studio, Home Assistant, DeepSeek, xAI, Glean, HuggingFace Inference API, Ollama, LiteLLM, and Docling Serve) accept user-supplied URLs without applying Langflow's existing SSRF protection utilities. The Docling Serve component additionally bypasses SSRF protection even when LANGFLOW_SSRF_PROTECTION_ENABLED is enabled. An authenticated attacker can reach arbitrary internal or external network destinations through standard authenticated flow execution and component configuration API endpoints, with response content potentially disclosed through component output or error messages. The vulnerability is non-blind SSRF allowing information disclosure. A fix is available in version 1.10.3.
