What it is
CVE-2025-71324 is an unauthenticated vulnerability affecting Flowise Flowise. Flowise before 3.0.6 contains an arbitrary file read vulnerability in the chatId parameter of the /api/v1/get-upload-file and...
Is it exploited?
Yes. KEVIntel sensors observed exploitation attempts with confirmed confidence.
Who is affected?
Flowise / Flowise affected before 3.0.6.
What should we do?
Patch immediately, validate internet-facing exposure, and monitor for matching requests.
Overview
Flowise before 3.0.6 contains an arbitrary file read vulnerability in the chatId parameter of the /api/v1/get-upload-file and /api/v1/openai-assistants-file/download endpoints. The chatId value is not validated and is passed to streamStorageFile(), where a fallback file-lookup path constructed without the orgId is evaluated after the storage-directory containment check, allowing path traversal beyond the intended storage directory.
Unauthenticated attackers can read sensitive files such as /root/.flowise/database.sqlite, exposing all database content in the default configuration.
Exploitation evidence
Third-party attestation and first-party sensor observation are shown separately so teams can judge the evidence chain.
The Shadowserver
Independent exploitation attestation added to the KEVIntel record.
KEVIntel sensor
First-party sensor telemetry confirms matching exploitation attempts.
Nuclei Templates
Public scanner or PoC coverage increases practical exploitability.
