n8n before 1.123.76 Improper Authorization via Source Control Push

Impact

n8n versions before 1.123.76, 2.37.7, and 2.38.2 have an improper authorization vulnerability, allowing an authenticated project-scoped user to push deletions of files they don't have access to. Exploitation requires the Source Control feature to be licensed and enabled. This can result in cross-project data destruction.

Summarized by @cf/meta/llama-3.3-70b-instruct-fp8-fast. Verify details against the original sources.
Applies when

Exploitation requires the Source Control (Environments) enterprise feature to be licensed, enabled, and connected to a remote repository.

Original source description

n8n is a workflow automation platform. In n8n versions before 1.123.76, 2.37.7, and 2.38.2, the source control push endpoint derived the set of files to push from the file paths and status supplied in the client request payload instead of from the server-side status computed for the requesting user. An authenticated project-scoped user (e.g., a project admin) could therefore reference files belonging to projects they have no access to and push a deletion of those projects' workflows and credentials, resulting in cross-project data destruction. Exploitation requires the Source Control (Environments) enterprise feature to be licensed, enabled, and connected to a remote repository. The issue is fixed in 1.123.76, 2.37.7, and 2.38.2.
