What is CVE-2026-5026?
CVE-2026-5026 is a high-severity cross-site scripting vulnerability in Langflow Langflow, published on 27 Mar 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.
Official description
The '/api/v1/files/images/{flow_id}/{file_name}' endpoint serves SVG files with the 'image/svg+xml' content type without sanitizing their content.
Since SVG files can contain embedded JavaScript, an attacker can upload a malicious SVG that executes arbitrary JavaScript when viewed by other users, leading to stored cross-site scripting (XSS). This allows stealing authentication tokens stored in cookies, including JWT access and refresh tokens.
