## What is CVE-2026-33484?

CVE-2026-33484 is a high-severity missing authorization vulnerability in Langflow Langflow, published on 24 Mar 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

Langflow is a tool for building and deploying AI-powered agents and workflows. In versions 1.0.0 through 1.8.1, the `/api/v1/files/images/{flow_id}/{file_name}` endpoint serves image files without any authentication or ownership check. Any unauthenticated request with a known flow_id and file_name returns the image with HTTP 200. In a multi-tenant deployment, any attacker who can discover or guess a `flow_id` (UUIDs can be leaked through other API responses) can download any user's uploaded images without credentials. Version 1.9.0 contains a patch.

Weakness: CWE-862 (Missing Authorization), CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key), CWE-284 (Improper Access Control)

Check this codebase for CVE-2026-33484 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2026-33484 is a high-severity missing authorization vulnerability in Langflow Langflow, published on 24 Mar 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.
Exploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-33484 exists.

Affected packages and fixed versions:
- langflow (PyPI): affected from 1.0.0; fixed in 1.9.0
- langflow (PyPI): affected from 1.0.0; fixed in 1.9.0
- langflow (PyPI): affected from 1.0.0; fixed in 1.9.0

Task:
1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.
2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
