CVE-2026-77080 — n8n before 1.123.69 Arbitrary File Read and Write via Snowflake

n8n before 1.123.69, 2.x before 2.33.4, and 2.34.x before 2.34.1 contain an arbitrary file read and write vulnerability in the Snowflake node, which passes free-form Execute Query input, including client-side commands, directly to the Snowflake SDK without applying n8n's file-access restrictions. An authenticated user with usable Snowflake credentials can upload a local file from the n8n host or overwrite an existing file with a staged one.

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
  • Technical severity (high)+6

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.

Remediation

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

  • Documented mitigation — github.com (NIST National Vulnerability Database)

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.

  1. Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (N8n N8n, N8n-io N8n).
  2. Apply the documented mitigations until a definitive fix is available.
  3. Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (injection), errors and authentication anomalies.

Detection

Read off the CVSS vector and the weakness class. Starting points, not tested rules.

  • Prioritize edge telemetry for the network-reachable component (proxy, WAF, IDS/IPS).
  • Look for parameters with command/query metacharacters and unexpected child processes of the service.
