Langflow Remote Code Execution (CVE-2026-0770)

Historical catalog analysis: CISA added this entry on July 21, 2026. The entry reflects catalog information retrieved on August 31, 2026, not a snapshot archived on the inclusion date. Check current vendor guidance before acting.

What the vulnerability is

CVE-2026-0770 is a vulnerability in Langflow categorized as the inclusion of functionality from an untrusted control sphere (CWE-829). This flaw allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations. The vulnerability was added to the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on July 21, 2026.

Exposure and applicability

This vulnerability affects organizations running vulnerable versions of Langflow. The risk is most acute for installations with direct internet exposure, as the flaw enables remote execution. Infrastructure owners should identify all instances of Langflow within their environment to determine if they are subject to this exposure path.

Remediation priorities

Based on our analysis, vulnerability management teams should prioritize assets based on their network accessibility and the sensitivity of the data processed by the Langflow instance.

Our recommended priority actions include:
1. Update to Version 1.9.0: The vendor has released version 1.9.0 to address this issue. This is the primary corrective action supported by the source.
2. Internet Exposure Audit: Identify and isolate Langflow instances that are reachable from the public internet, as these represent the highest immediate risk for remote exploitation.
3. Forensics Triage: For federal agencies or organizations following CISA guidelines, perform forensics triage in accordance with BOD 26-04 requirements to determine if the vulnerability was exploited prior to patching.

How to validate remediation

To ensure that exposure has been reduced, defenders must move beyond simple version checks. While confirming the installation of v1.9.0 is a necessary first step, it does not alone prove the system is secure.

Validation should include:
* Version Verification: Confirming through package managers or application metadata that v1.9.0 (or later) is actively running in production.
* Configuration Review: Verifying that any temporary compensating controls—such as restrictive firewall rules or network segmentation implemented during the patching window—remain in place or are formally decommissioned only after the update is verified.
* Deployment Confirmation: Ensuring the update was applied across all nodes in a cluster, rather than just a single instance.

Limits and open questions

Updating to v1.9.0 could reduce the likelihood of exploitation via this specific vector, but it does not guarantee total system security against other undiscovered flaws. It remains unknown whether this vulnerability has been utilized in ransomware campaigns. Additionally, while CISA established a remediation deadline of July 24, 2026, for federal agencies, non-federal organizations must determine their own risk-based timelines.
