OAuth Vulnerability in n8n Workflow Automation Platform
CVE-2026-45732
What is CVE-2026-45732?
An authorization bypass vulnerability exists in the n8n workflow automation platform, where the OAuth1 and OAuth2 credential reconnect endpoints were incorrectly configured. Before specific versions, these endpoints utilized 'credential:read' permissions, allowing authenticated users with limited access to initiate a reconnect flow that could overwrite sensitive token information. This flaw could allow attackers to gain unauthorized access to workflows reliant on affected credentials, leading to potential data exfiltration and persistent integration takeovers via external accounts. The issue has been resolved in the latest updates to n8n.
