- Check your version: run
npm ls n8n. Versions < 1.123.55 of n8n are affected. [1]
What to do now
- Upgrade to the fixed version: run
npm install n8n@1.123.55(first patched version 1.123.55). [1] - Upgrade to n8n 1.123.55, 2.25.7, or 2.26.2 or later. [1]
- Limit workflow creation and editing permissions to fully trusted users only. [1]
- Disable the Chat Trigger node by adding
@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTriggerto theNODES_EXCLUDEenvironment variable. [1] - These workarounds do not fully remediate the risk and should only be used as short-term mitigation measures. [1]
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.
