Summary

n8n before 2.46.1 contains a credential exposure vulnerability that forwards Authorization headers and basic auth credentials on cross-origin redirects because sendCredentialsOnCrossOriginRedirect defaults to true. Attackers controlling a redirect target or an expression-fed URL in credential-using nodes can capture stored workflow credentials sent to their endpoint.

Patch / fix

  • npm n8n >= 2.45.5, >= 2.46.1, >= 3.0.1
  • n8n-io n8n 2.45.5, 2.46.1, 3.0.1

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.

The maintainers of n8n-io/n8n published their own advisory on GitHub. Reviewed sources take precedence over it.
