SCA: security update for n8n (GHSA-pf83-w3f9-8m37)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 447941

Description

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

 - n8n is an open source workflow automation platform. Prior to 1.123.76, 2.37.7, and 2.38.2, the public OIDC
 login and callback endpoints completed authentication even when OIDC was not the enabled active
 authentication method. An Enterprise administrator who had configured and later disabled an identity
 provider still exposed a working route that could issue valid sessions. The affected logic is
 packages/cli/src/modules/sso-oidc/oidc.service.ee.ts, including generateLoginUrl and the callback flow
 that lacked assertOidcLoginEnabled. This issue is fixed in versions 1.123.76, 2.37.7 and 2.38.2.
 (CVE-2026-86084)

Solution

Update the n8n library and its related packages to version 1.123.76 or later.
