Langflow · Langflow · CVE-2026-55447
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Langflow versions prior to 1.9.2
**Description**
An issue exists in components based on `BaseFileComponent`, including Docling (`DoclingInlineComponent`), Docling Serve (`DoclingRemoteComponent`), Read File (`FileComponent`), NVIDIA Retriever Extraction (`NvidiaIngestComponent`), Video File (`VideoFileComponent`), and Unstructured API (`UnstructuredComponent`). The ` unpack bundle()` function in `langflow/src/lfx/src/lfx/base/data/base file.py` fails to properly validate files during TAR extraction, allowing the processing of symlinks. An attacker can provide a crafted TAR file containing symlinks to absolute paths on the file-system, directing the node to read arbitrary files. This can lead to the exposure of sensitive information, such as the `secret key` used for JWT tokens, which could subsequently allow an attacker to bypass authentication and achieve remote code execution by creating a flow with a Python Interpreter node.
**Recommendations**
Update to version 1.9.2 or later.
As a temporary workaround, restrict the use of components based on `BaseFileComponent` when processing user-controlled data.
