GHSA-PGC4-5JJM-7RR7
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-07-07 21:31 – Updated: 2026-07-07 21:31HTTP::Tiny versions before 0.095 for Perl forward credential headers to cross-origin redirect targets.
When the server returns a 3xx redirect, _maybe_redirect follows the Location: header and _prepare_headers_and_cb re-merges the caller's headers argument into the new request, without checking whether the redirect target shares an origin with the original URL. Caller-supplied Authorization, Cookie and Proxy-Authorization headers are therefore re-sent to whatever host the redirect names, across scheme, host or port boundaries, and including https to http downgrades that expose them in plaintext on the wire.
The HTTP::Tiny POD note that "Authorization headers will not be included in a redirected request" applied only to the URL-userinfo Basic-auth path, not to headers passed explicitly by the caller.

GHSA-PHCG-H58R-GMCQ
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-02-04 20:43 – Updated: 2026-02-04 20:43Impact
PCR14 is not included in the list of PCRs that seal/unseal the vault key. Additionally, the vault key uses SHA1 PCRs instead of SHA256. Thus an attacker with physical access can take out the disk, use a different computer to modify the files in the /config partition, and re-insert the disk and boot without the change being detected by measured boot and remote attestation.
Patches
Fixed in EVE version 9.4.3-lts
Workarounds
None (apart from preventing physical access to the device)

GHSA-PHP6-83FG-GW3G
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-14 14:54 – Updated: 2026-06-09 13:10Detection Method: Kolega.dev Deep Code Scan
| Attribute | Value |
|---|---|
| Severity | Medium |
| CWE | CWE-522 (Insufficiently Protected Credentials) |
| Location | packages/server/src/enterprise/controllers/account.controller.ts:128-135 |
| Practical Exploitability | Medium |
| Developer Approver | faizan@kolega.ai |
Description
The checkBasicAuth endpoint validates credentials in plaintext without rate limiting and with direct comparison.
Affected Code
public async checkBasicAuth(req: Request, res: Response) {
const { username, password } = req.body
if (username === process.env.FLOWISE_USERNAME && password === process.env.FLOWISE_PASSWORD) {
return res.json({ message: 'Authentication successful' })
Evidence
Credentials are sent in plaintext in request body and compared directly without hashing. No rate limiting prevents brute force attacks. The endpoint returns different messages for success/failure, enabling enumeration.
Impact
Credential brute-forcing - attackers can attempt unlimited username/password combinations against the basic auth system. Successful attacks grant access to the application.
Recommendation
1) Implement rate limiting on this endpoint, 2) Use constant-time comparison to prevent timing attacks, 3) Consider using hashed comparison, 4) Return generic error messages, 5) Add logging for failed attempts.
Notes
The checkBasicAuth endpoint at line 128-135 has multiple security issues: (1) No rate limiting - the RateLimiterManager only applies to chatflow-specific endpoints, not auth endpoints. Attackers can perform unlimited brute force attempts. (2) Uses JavaScript === operator for comparison which is not constant-time, potentially enabling timing attacks. (3) Returns different messages for success ('Authentication successful') vs failure ('Authentication failed'), enabling credential enumeration. The endpoint compares plaintext credentials against environment variables FLOWISE_USERNAME and FLOWISE_PASSWORD. While this is basic auth for simpler deployments, the lack of rate limiting makes it actively exploitable for credential brute-forcing.

No rate limiting prevents brute force attacks. The endpoint returns different messages for success/failure, enabling enumeration.\n\n### Impact\nCredential brute-forcing - attackers can attempt unlimited username/password combinations against the basic auth system. Successful attacks grant access to the application.\n\n### Recommendation\n1) Implement rate limiting on this endpoint, 2) Use constant-time comparison to prevent timing attacks, 3) Consider using hashed comparison, 4) Return generic error messages, 5) Add logging for failed attempts.\n\n### Notes\nThe checkBasicAuth endpoint at line 128-135 has multiple security issues: (1) No rate limiting - the RateLimiterManager only applies to chatflow-specific endpoints, not auth endpoints. Attackers can perform unlimited brute force attempts. (2) Uses JavaScript === operator for comparison which is not constant-time, potentially enabling timing attacks. (3) Returns different messages for success (\u0027Authentication successful\u0027) vs failure (\u0027Authentication failed\u0027), enabling credential enumeration. The endpoint compares plaintext credentials against environment variables FLOWISE_USERNAME and FLOWISE_PASSWORD. While this is basic auth for simpler deployments, the lack of rate limiting makes it actively exploitable for credential brute-forcing.",

Mitigation
Use an appropriate security mechanism to protect the credentials.
Mitigation
Make appropriate use of cryptography to protect the credentials.
Mitigation
Use industry standards to protect the credentials (e.g. LDAP, keystore, etc.).
CAPEC-102: Session Sidejacking
Session sidejacking takes advantage of an unencrypted communication channel between a victim and target system. The attacker sniffs traffic on a network looking for session tokens in unencrypted traffic. Once a session token is captured, the attacker performs malicious actions by using the stolen token with the targeted application to impersonate the victim. This attack is a specific method of session hijacking, which is exploiting a valid session token to gain unauthorized access to a target system or information. Other methods to perform a session hijacking are session fixation, cross-site scripting, or compromising a user or server machine and stealing the session token.
CAPEC-474: Signature Spoofing by Key Theft
An attacker obtains an authoritative or reputable signer's private signature key by theft and then uses this key to forge signatures from the original signer to mislead a victim into performing actions that benefit the attacker.
CAPEC-50: Password Recovery Exploitation
An attacker may take advantage of the application feature to help users recover their forgotten passwords in order to gain access into the system with the same privileges as the original user. Generally password recovery schemes tend to be weak and insecure.
CAPEC-509: Kerberoasting
Through the exploitation of how service accounts leverage Kerberos authentication with Service Principal Names (SPNs), the adversary obtains and subsequently cracks the hashed credentials of a service account target to exploit its privileges. The Kerberos authentication protocol centers around a ticketing system which is used to request/grant access to services and to then access the requested services. As an authenticated user, the adversary may request Active Directory and obtain a service ticket with portions encrypted via RC4 with the private key of the authenticated account. By extracting the local ticket and saving it disk, the adversary can brute force the hashed value to reveal the target account credentials.
CAPEC-551: Modify Existing Service
When an operating system starts, it also starts programs called services or daemons. Modifying existing services may break existing services or may enable services that are disabled/not commonly used.
CAPEC-555: Remote Services with Stolen Credentials
This pattern of attack involves an adversary that uses stolen credentials to leverage remote services such as RDP, telnet, SSH, and VNC to log into a system. Once access is gained, any number of malicious activities could be performed.
CAPEC-560: Use of Known Domain Credentials
An adversary guesses or obtains (i.e. steals or purchases) legitimate credentials (e.g. userID/password) to achieve authentication and to perform authorized actions under the guise of an authenticated user or service.
CAPEC-561: Windows Admin Shares with Stolen Credentials
An adversary guesses or obtains (i.e. steals or purchases) legitimate Windows administrator credentials (e.g. userID/password) to access Windows Admin Shares on a local machine or within a Windows domain.
CAPEC-600: Credential Stuffing
An adversary tries known username/password combinations against different systems, applications, or services to gain additional authenticated access. Credential Stuffing attacks rely upon the fact that many users leverage the same username/password combination for multiple systems, applications, and services.
CAPEC-644: Use of Captured Hashes (Pass The Hash)
An adversary obtains (i.e. steals or purchases) legitimate Windows domain credential hash values to access systems within the domain that leverage the Lan Man (LM) and/or NT Lan Man (NTLM) authentication protocols.
CAPEC-645: Use of Captured Tickets (Pass The Ticket)
An adversary uses stolen Kerberos tickets to access systems/resources that leverage the Kerberos authentication protocol. The Kerberos authentication protocol centers around a ticketing system which is used to request/grant access to services and to then access the requested services. An adversary can obtain any one of these tickets (e.g. Service Ticket, Ticket Granting Ticket, Silver Ticket, or Golden Ticket) to authenticate to a system/resource without needing the account's credentials. Depending on the ticket obtained, the adversary may be able to access a particular resource or generate TGTs for any account within an Active Directory Domain.
CAPEC-652: Use of Known Kerberos Credentials
An adversary obtains (i.e. steals or purchases) legitimate Kerberos credentials (e.g. Kerberos service account userID/password or Kerberos Tickets) with the goal of achieving authenticated access to additional systems, applications, or services within the domain.
CAPEC-653: Use of Known Operating System Credentials
An adversary guesses or obtains (i.e. steals or purchases) legitimate operating system credentials (e.g. userID/password) to achieve authentication and to perform authorized actions on the system, under the guise of an authenticated user or service. This applies to any Operating System.
