CVE-2026-9198
Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution via Auto-Login Bypass and Code Validation
Exploitation confirmed. First attested on 2026-08-04 by CISA-ADP, CISA KEV, GCVE · kevintel.

Am I affected?
Debian, Ubuntu or Red Hat sometimes backport a fix without changing the upstream version number: such a version reads « to verify », never « affected ».With a domain, we read the version its public headers and pages expose. A distribution build can carry the fix under an older number.
Description
IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.0 allows unauthenticated attackers to chain /api/v1/auto_login (mints SUPERUSER tokens to any network caller) with /api/v1/validate/code (executes user code via exec()) to achieve full RCE on default Langflow deployments
