Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Flowise is a drag & drop user interface to build a customized large language model flow. Prior to 3.1.0, this vulnerability allows remote attackers to bypass authentication on affected installations of FlowiseAI Flowise. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the resetPassword method of the AccountService class. There is no check performed to ensure that a password reset token has actually been generated for a user account. By default the value of the reset token stored in a users account is null, or an empty string if they've reset their password before. An attacker with knowledge of the user's email address can submit a request to the "/api/v1/account/reset-password" endpoint containing a null or empty string reset token value and reset that user's password to a value of their choosing. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.0.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

FlowiseAI Flowise prior to version 3.1.0 contains an authentication bypass in the password reset functionality. The resetPassword method in AccountService does not validate whether a password reset token was actually generated for the target user account. Since the token field defaults to null or empty string, an attacker with knowledge of a user's email can reset that user's password by sending a crafted request to /api/v1/account/reset-password with a null/empty token value.

MitigationUpgrade Flowise to version 3.1.0 or later, which implements proper validation of password reset tokens before allowing password changes. Until patched, disable or restrict access to the password reset endpoint.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Determine installed Flowise version
    Locate the Flowise installation and check the version field in package.json or package-lock.json, or run 'npm list flowise' if installed as a dependency. Compare the version number to the 3.1.0 threshold.
    Affected if The installed version is any release prior to 3.1.0 (e.g., 3.0.0, 2.x, 1.x).
  2. Confirm password reset endpoint is accessible
    Verify that the /api/v1/account/reset-password endpoint is reachable from your network. This can be confirmed by reviewing reverse proxy configurations, firewall rules, or by attempting a GET request to the endpoint (which should return a 405 Method Not Allowed if the route exists).
    Affected if The endpoint is exposed to untrusted networks or the internet without additional authentication layers.
  3. Check authentication configuration
    Review the Flowise configuration files or environment variables to determine if external authentication (such as OAuth, LDAP, or SSO) is configured as the primary authentication method rather than Flowise's built-in account system.
    Affected if Flowise's native username/password authentication is in use without external auth, and the version is below 3.1.0.

A user is affected if Flowise version is below 3.1.0 AND the built-in account system is active, allowing a remote attacker to reset any user's password by submitting a crafted request with an empty token to the reset-password endpoint.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 3.1.0 or later
Fixed in 3.1.0
Interim mitigation

Upgrade Flowise to version 3.1.0 or later, which implements proper validation of password reset tokens before allowing password changes. Until patched, disable or restrict access to the password reset endpoint.

Recommended fix High confidence

Flowise 3.1.0 or later

  1. Check current Flowise version by accessing the admin interface or checking the running container/process
  2. Backup any existing Flowise data, configurations, and databases before upgrading
  3. Upgrade Flowise to version 3.1.0 or later. If using Docker, pull the latest image: docker pull flowiseai/flowise:latest or specify version 3.1.0
  4. If using npm/package installation, run: npm install -g [email protected] or npm install [email protected]
  5. Restart the Flowise service to apply the update
  6. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the version in the admin interface or API
  7. Confirm the /api/v1/account/reset-password endpoint now properly validates reset tokens before allowing password changes
