Summary

CVE-2025-58434 affects Flowise, a drag and drop user interface for building customized large language model flows, in version 3.0.5 and earlier. The `forgot-password` endpoint returns sensitive information, including a valid password reset `tempToken`, without authentication or verification, letting an attacker reset any user's password and take over the account. The flaw affects the cloud service at `cloud.flowiseai.com` and self-hosted or local deployments that expose the same API.

Mitigation

Commit 9e178d68873eb876073846433a596590d3d9c863 in version 3.0.6 secures password reset endpoints. Source recommends: do not return reset tokens or sensitive account details in API responses; deliver tokens only through the registered email channel; make `forgot-password` return a generic success message regardless of input to prevent user enumeration; require strong validation of `tempToken` (e.g., single-use, short expiry, tied to request origin, validated against email delivery); apply the same fixes to cloud and self-hosted/local deployments; log and monitor password reset requests for suspicious activity; consider multi-factor verification for sensitive accounts.
