SCA: security update for n8n-nodes-sqlite3 (GHSA-q7m3-rhxg-7vxr)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 446374

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- n8n-nodes-sqlite3 is a node for operating a local SQLite database from n8n. Prior to 1.0.0,
nodes/SqliteNode/v1/SqliteV1.node.ts exposes the db_path database file path as a node parameter that
permits data expressions from upstream workflow input. A workflow author who maps untrusted input to
db_path can allow a remote attacker to select which SQLite file the n8n process opens, enabling traversal
outside the intended database location and potentially reading, creating, or overwriting files accessible
to the process. This issue is fixed in version 1.0.0. (CVE-2026-54687)

Solution

Update the n8n-nodes-sqlite3 library and its related packages to version 1.0.0 or later.
