IBM Langflow OSS 1.0-1.10.1 FAISS reuse causes cross-user data disclosure
CVE-2026-13442 Published on July 28, 2026
Langflow is affected by NET Misconfiguration: Use of Impersonation due to multiple unauthenticated and insufficiently authorized API endpoints
IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.1 can allow an attacker to reuse another user's FAISS namespace to access owner-only vector content and influence later query results. This causes cross-user information disclosure and limited integrity impact through persistent poisoning of returned results.
Vulnerability Analysis
CVE-2026-13442 is exploitable with network access, and requires small amount of user privileges. This vulnerability is considered to have a low attack complexity. The potential impact of an exploit of this vulnerability is considered to have a high impact on confidentiality, with no impact on integrity, and no impact on availability.
Weakness Type
.NET Misconfiguration: Use of Impersonation
Allowing a .NET application to run at potentially escalated levels of access to the underlying operating and file systems can be dangerous and result in various forms of attacks. .NET server applications can optionally execute using the identity of the user authenticated to the client. The intention of this functionality is to bypass authentication and access control checks within the .NET application code. Authentication is done by the underlying web server (Microsoft Internet Information Service IIS), which passes the authenticated token, or unauthenticated anonymous token, to the .NET application. Using the token to impersonate the client, the application then relies on the settings within the NTFS directories and files to control access. Impersonation enables the application, on the server running the .NET application, to both execute code and access resources in the context of the authenticated and authorized user.
