Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to alter other users' code-node executions and affect their confidentiality, integrity, or availability.

The vulnerability exists due to improper isolation in the js task runner module cache when processing code-node executions on a shared runner. A remote user can poison a cached module to alter other users' code-node executions and affect their confidentiality, integrity, or availability.

This is a cross-user isolation break within a single n8n instance and does not constitute a sandbox escape or remote code execution. Only multi-user instances running the js task runner with built-in or external modules enabled are vulnerable.
