Synopsis

N8n < 2.2.2 Unauthenticated Forged Webhooks

Description

According to its banner, the version of n8n running on the remote host is 0.150 or later and before 2.2.2. It is, therefore, affected by an authentication bypass in the Stripe trigger, allowing unauthenticated parties to trigger workflows by sending forget Stripe webhook events.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to n8n version 2.2.2 or later.
