Critical SSRF exploit reference

CVE-2026-43995 — Flowise: SSRF Protection Bypass via Direct node-fetch / axios Usage (Patch Enforcement Failure)

Flowise is a drag & drop user interface to build a customized large language model flow. Prior to 3.1.0, multiple tool implementations directly import and invoke raw HTTP clients (node-fetch, axios) instead of using the secured wrapper. These tools include (1) OpenAPIToolkit/OpenAPIToolkit.ts, (2) WebScraperTool/WebScraperTool.ts, (3) MCP/core.ts, and (4) Arxiv/core.ts. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.0.

Low

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

No exploitation signal in the sources consulted so far.

How the score was calculated

EPSS 0.5% (30-day exploitation probability)+6
Technical severity (critical)+10
CISA SSVC: exploitation "poc"+5

The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).

Triage

Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

Exploitation

Not confirmed

Not in CISA KEV — an absence of record, not proof it is unexploited.

Remediation

Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.

First 24 hours

Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.

Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Flowiseai Flowise).
The attack is network-based and needs no privileges: restrict exposure (ACLs, VPN, WAF) until patched.
Apply the documented mitigations until a definitive fix is available.
Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (ssrf), errors and authentication anomalies.

What should defenders know first?

CVE-2026-43995 is "Flowise: SSRF Protection Bypass via Direct node-fetch / axios Usage (Patch Enforcement Failure)", rated Critical. It affects Flowise (Flowiseai); versions are in the scope table. It is not in CISA KEV, which does not rule out exploitation. CVSS 9.8 describes technical severity. EPSS 0.48% estimates the probability of exploitation in 30 days; neither replaces your asset context. First verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run the affected versions, apply vendor fixes or mitigations, and preserve logs for review.
