GHSA-3c7f-5hgj-h279
## Impact An authenticated user with permission to create or modify workflows could inject malicious JavaScript into the Custom CSS field of the Chat Trigger node. Due to a misconfiguration in the `sanitize-html` library, the sanitization could be bypassed, resulting in stored XSS on the public chat page. Any user visiting the chat URL would be affected. ## Patches The issue has been fixed in n8n versions 1.123.27, 2.13.3, and 2.14.1. Users should upgrade to one of these versions or later to remediate the vulnerability. ## Workarounds If upgrading is not immediately possible, administrators should consider the following temporary mitigations: - Limit workflow creation and editing permissions to fully trusted users only. - Disable the Chat Trigger node by adding `@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` to the `NODES_EXCLUDE` environment variable. These workarounds do not fully remediate the risk and should only be used as short-term mitigation measures.
