Executive Summary

This is a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in n8n versions before 1.123.69. It exists in the Edit Image node's Draw Text operation where authenticated users can inject MVG primitives by crafting malicious text values. This allows attackers to issue blind outbound HTTP requests to arbitrary addresses or access local files.

Detection Guidance

Detecting this vulnerability requires checking the version of n8n installed on your system. Run 'n8n --version' to verify if it is below 1.123.69, 2.34.1, or 2.33.4. Additionally, inspect workflows for untrusted data usage in the Edit Image node's Draw Text operation.

Impact Analysis

An attacker with access to your n8n instance could make unauthorized outbound network requests or read sensitive files on the server. This could lead to data exfiltration, internal network reconnaissance, or further attacks against your systems. The impact depends on the permissions of the n8n service and the network configuration.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized data access or exfiltration, violating GDPR's data protection requirements or HIPAA's safeguards for protected health information. Organizations using affected n8n versions may face compliance violations, regulatory fines, or reputational damage if exploited.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update n8n to versions 1.123.69, 2.34.1, or 2.33.4 or later. As temporary measures, restrict n8n instance access to trusted users, disable the Edit Image node, audit workflows for untrusted data usage, and restrict network egress from the n8n host.
