medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 445146

Description

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

- n8n before 1.123.64, 2.29.8, and 2.30.1 fails to enforce the "Allowed HTTP Request Domains" restriction on
HTTP-based credentials (Header Auth, Basic Auth, Query Auth, OAuth) in the GraphQL node, unlike the HTTP
Request node. An authenticated user able to create or edit workflows can point the node's endpoint at a
server they control and exfiltrate restricted credentials. Only instances where a credential has "Allowed
