CVE-2026-72771
HIGH 7.1n8n versions before 2.32.1 fail to enforce the Allowed HTTP Request Domains allowlist in multiple AI and LLM nodes when user-supplied base or endpoint URLs are configured. Low-privileged workflow editors with use-only access to shared credentials can redirect requests to attacker-controlled hosts and exfiltrate credential secrets for reuse against underlying services.
Severe if exploited (CVSS 7.1), but no known exploitation and low modeled probability. Patch on a normal cadence.
