Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute workflows in unrelated n8n projects under those projects' credentials.

The vulnerability exists due to path-only matching in n8n's shared webhook, form, and MCP resolver when resolving dynamic-path endpoints. An unauthenticated attacker can omit the unguessable server-generated identifier from a request URL and still trigger the target workflow if node-level authentication is absent or its requirements are satisfied.
