CVE-2026-77080: n8n before 1.123.69, 2.x before 2.33.4, and 2.34.x before 2.34.1 contain an arbitrary file read and write vuln
CVE-2026-77080 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 8.8) affecting n8n. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
n8n before 1.123.69, 2.x before 2.33.4, and 2.34.x before 2.34.1 contain an arbitrary file read and write vulnerability in the Snowflake node, which passes free-form Execute Query input, including client-side commands, directly to the Snowflake SDK without applying n8n's file-access restrictions. An authenticated user with usable Snowflake credentials can upload a local file from the n8n host or overwrite an existing file with a staged one.
Why this priority
- High severity
A fixed release or distro patch exists.
