CVE-2026-73602: Flowiseai: Path traversal

CVE-2026-73602 is rated critical with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.9 and affects Flowiseai. Per its scoring, it can be exploited over the network, without any user interaction. The scored impact on confidentiality, integrity and availability is the highest available.

Vulnerability description

Flowise before 3.1.3 contains a sandbox escape vulnerability in the vm2 JavaScript sandbox that allows authenticated users to execute arbitrary code by exploiting moment locale validation bypass. Attackers can craft a fake String object with a match function that bypasses path traversal checks to load and execute malicious JavaScript files stored in the document store outside the sandbox.
