n8n: Unauthenticated Endpoint Allows Cancellation of Any User's Active Test Webhook
Packages
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
## Impact
The `DELETE /${restEndpoint}/test-webhook/:id` route is registered before the authentication middleware is applied, allowing any unauthenticated network caller who knows a workflow ID to cancel that workflow's active test webhook registration.
The impact is limited to disrupting in-progress test sessions. Production webhooks, persistent workflow state, and stored data are not affected.
## Patches
Users should upgrade to the patched version once available to remediate the vulnerability.
## Workarounds
If upgrading is not immediately possible, administrators should consider the following temporary mitigations:
- Restrict network access to the n8n instance to fully trusted users only.
- Place the n8n instance behind a reverse proxy or firewall that requires authentication before reaching the REST API.
These workarounds do not fully remediate the risk and should only be used as short-term mitigation measures.
