CVE-2026-126385: n8n before 2.46.1 OAuth Account Hijack via Unauthenticated Credential Callback

MediumCVSS 4.8 · v4.0—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 19/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: n8n-io n8n 2.45.5, 2.46.1, 3.0.1.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to n8n-io n8n 2.45.5, 2.46.1, 3.0.1 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org

n8n before 2.45.5, 2.46.x before 2.46.1, and 3.x before 3.0.1 contains a flaw in the OAuth2 credential callback of the dynamic-credential connect flow, which does not verify that the completing browser belongs to the user who started the flow. Members with access to a resolvable OAuth2 credential can send the provider authorization URL to a victim; if the victim consents without an active n8n session, the victim's tokens are stored under the member's identity, letting the member's workflows act as the victim.

Root cause

A function added for development or support ships to production without authentication. It often relies on the assumption that it is “only reachable from the internal network.”
