What is CVE-2026-28277?

CVE-2026-28277 is a medium-severity unsafe deserialization vulnerability in langchain-ai langgraph, published on 5 Mar 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.

Official description

LangGraph SQLite Checkpoint is an implementation of LangGraph CheckpointSaver that uses SQLite DB (both sync and async, via aiosqlite). In version 1.0.9 and prior, LangGraph checkpointers can load msgpack-encoded checkpoints that reconstruct Python objects during deserialization. If an attacker can modify checkpoint data in the backing store (for example, after a database compromise or other privileged write access to the persistence layer), they can potentially supply a crafted payload that triggers unsafe object reconstruction when the checkpoint is loaded. No known patch is public.

Weakness: CWE-502
