Langflow cross-tenant IDOR (CWE-639), actively exploited, CISA KEV, chained with RCE CVE-2026-33017

CVE-2026-55255, Langflow cross-tenant IDOR now CISA KEV-listed, chained with the pre-auth RCE CVE-2026-33017

CVE-2026-55255 is an insecure-direct-object-reference flaw (CWE-639) in Langflow's OpenAI-Responses-compatible endpoint POST /api/v1/responses: the helper get_flow_by_id_or_endpoint_name (helpers/flow.py) resolves a flow by UUID with no user_id ownership check, so any authenticated caller who obtains another user's flow UUID can execute that user's flow, including whatever LLM-provider or cloud credentials are embedded in it (Sysdig, 2026-06-26). NVD scores it 8.4; the GitHub Security Advisory (GHSA-qrpv-q767-xqq2) and Sysdig rate the scope-changed vector at 9.9. Sysdig's Threat Research Team observed a single financially-motivated operator on 25 June 2026 run a scripted playbook against one exposed instance (enumerate flow UUIDs via GET /api/v1/flows/, then the IDOR with an input resembling a prompt-injection string) followed by repeated waves of the already-KEV-listed unauthenticated RCE CVE-2026-33017 (build_public_tmp) to plant a loader. CISA added CVE-2026-55255 to KEV on 7 July 2026 (BleepingComputer, 2026-07-08). Sysdig's load-bearing lesson is that the lower-scoring RCE dominated actual attacker effort because it needs no valid flow ID and is a strict superset of the IDOR on a single-tenant deployment; the IDOR matters distinctly only on multi-tenant/managed Langflow, where it crosses the tenant boundary at the application layer with no sandbox escape.
