CVE-2026-13445 remediation guide
IBM Langflow OSS, langflow, macos
IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.1 can allow an authenticated attacker to exploit the SaveToFile component to read and modify another user's uploaded files by specifying absolute paths pointing to victim storage locations. In append mode, the attacker's workflow reads victim file contents, appends attacker-controlled data, and uploads a copy containing victim data to the attacker's namespace (confidentiality breach). In overwrite mode, the attacker can replace victim file contents with arbitrary data (integrity breach). This breaks the storage ownership boundary between users.
Identify the affected asset
Confirm whether IBM Langflow OSS, langflow, macos is installed, record the deployed version and installation path, and identify exposed interfaces.
- Record the product name, package or appliance identifier, and installed version.
- Identify internet-facing, administrative, API, and internal access paths.
- Preserve the pre-change configuration and relevant service logs.
Validate the affected-version match
Compare the deployed version with the affected range: >= 1.0.0 <= 1.10.1, >= 1.0.0 < 1.10.2. Treat incomplete inventory results as unresolved.
Prioritize with independent signals
The CVSS severity warrants an early asset and exposure review. Combine this signal with asset criticality, exposure, compensating controls, and business impact.
Apply supported remediation
Follow the vendor advisory or supported update path. Current fixed-version status: 1.10.2. Preserve configuration and rollback material before change.
Verify the result
Confirm the resulting version, service health, authentication and access paths, monitoring coverage, and relevant security logs.
- Confirm the expected version and package state.
- Run a functional health check for critical service paths.
- Review authentication, error, application, and security monitoring logs.
- Reassess exposure if the supported fix cannot be applied.
Operational boundary
This page does not replace the vendor advisory, support contract, change-management process, or recovery plan. Do not infer that an asset is unaffected from an incomplete inventory query or a missing fixed-version field.
