| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Impact
An authenticated user with permission to create or modify workflows could supply a crafted parameters to the TimescaleDB and/or legacy Postgres v1 node's allowing arbitrary SQL to be injected and executed against the connected database within the privileges of the configured database account.
Patches
The issue has been fixed in n8n versions 2.25.7, and 2.26.2. Users should upgrade to one of these versions or later to remediate the vulnerability.
Workarounds
If upgrading is not immediately possible, administrators should consider the following temporary mitigations:
- Limit workflow creation and editing permissions to fully trusted users only.
- Disable the Postgres and TimescaleDB node by adding
n8n-nodes-base.postgres,n8n-nodes-base.timescaleDbto theNODES EXCLUDEenvironment variable.
These workarounds do not fully remediate the risk and should only be used as short-term mitigation measures.
Fix
