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 3.1.3, Flowise's HTTP security module httpSecurity.ts did not normalize IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses such as ::ffff:127.0.0.1 and ::ffff:169.254.169.254 before checking them against the deny list. Because ipaddr.js reports these addresses as ipv6 while IPv4 CIDR deny-list entries are ipv4, isDeniedIP() skipped the IPv4 CIDR checks. An attacker who controls DNS resolution for a hostname used by the HTTP Node, API Chain, Document Loader, MCP tool, or other paths using secureAxiosRequest(), secureFetch(), or checkDenyList() could return a AAAA record for an IPv4-mapped target and cause requests to reach localhost, internal services, or cloud metadata endpoints. This issue is fixed in version 3.1.3.

How this class of weakness works · CWE-918

The server can be induced to make requests to a URL an attacker controls, turning it into a proxy into internal networks and cloud metadata services. It's especially dangerous behind a trusted network boundary. The fix is strict allow-listing of destinations and blocking access to internal address ranges.

Recommended fix High confidence

3.1.3

  1. 1. Identify the current Flowise version currently deployed in your environment
  2. 2. Upgrade Flowise to version 3.1.3 or later to obtain the security fix
  3. 3. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the Flowise version after installation
  4. 4. Test that HTTP requests to internal endpoints (localhost, 169.254.169.254) are properly denied after the upgrade
