Technical details

A DOM-based Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in n8n's HTML previewer. The application renders execution output into an 'iframe srcdoc' without the 'sandbox' attribute. By bypassing the HTML sanitizer, an attacker can inject malicious JavaScript that executes within the same origin as the n8n editor. Exploitation requires the attacker to have 'global:member' privileges to create the malicious workflow and requires a victim to view the HTML preview. Once triggered, the script can make authenticated API calls using the victim's active session. The issue is resolved in versions 1.123.64, 2.29.8, and 2.30.1.
