    Am I affected by n8n: computer-use Shell Sandbox Not Enforced on Linux and Windows? What should I do?

    The shell tool in the @n8n/computer-use package applied its sandbox restrictions only on macOS.

    Affected: n8n < 2.29.8 and >= 2.30.0, < 2.30.1. Fixed in: 2.29.8 and 2.30.1. What should you check, and what should you do about it?

      Am I affected? Affected: n8n < 2.29.8 and >= 2.30.0, < 2.30.1. Fixed in: 2.29.8 and 2.30.1.

      • Check your version: run npm ls n8n. Versions >= 2.30.0, < 2.30.1 of n8n are affected.

      What to do now

      1. Upgrade to the fixed version: run npm install n8n@2.30.1 (first patched version 2.30.1).
      2. Upgrade to n8n 2.29.8 or 2.30.1 or later.
      3. Disable or avoid deploying the @n8n/computer-use package on Linux or Windows hosts until the fix is applied.
      4. Restrict access to the n8n instance and the computer-use agent to fully trusted users only.

      General practice, not from the source: if the affected software could read tokens or credentials, rotate them after upgrading; pin versions and review changes before updating tools your agents run.
