SCA: security update for langflow, langflow-base, lfx (GHSA-w794-rj3p-xv45)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 473783

Description

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

 - Langflow is a tool for building and deploying AI-powered agents and workflows. Before Langflow 1.10.3, the
 MCP stdio transport launched whatever command / args a user put in an MCP server configuration, with no
 allowlist and (before 1.10.3) wrapped in bash -c "exec {command} ...". Any user able to reach the MCP
 server settings ("Settings → MCP Servers → Add MCP Server", POST/PATCH /api/v2/mcp/servers/{server_name})
 or to build a flow with the MCP Tools component could add a "server" whose command is an arbitrary OS
 command (touch, rm -rf, a reverse shell, ...). The command runs on the Langflow host as the Langflow
 process user as soon as Langflow tries to connect to the server (listing servers, loading tools, running
 the flow) — even when the UI then reports that the stdio server failed to start. With the default
 LANGFLOW_AUTO_LOGIN=true, GET /api/v1/auto_login hands out a token without credentials, so on an exposed
 instance running the default configuration this is reachable without an account. AUTO_LOGIN is documented
 as a development-only setting; with it disabled, any authenticated (non-admin) user can exploit it. This
 issue is fixed in Langflow 1.10.3, langflow-base 0.10.3, and lfx 1.10.3. (CVE-2026-105697)

Solution

Update the langflow-base library and its related packages to version 0.10.3 or later.
