CVE-2026-86994: n8n: Cross-User Active Workflow ID and Lifecycle Event Disclosure via Missing userId Filter

September 10, 2026

The endpoint /rest/active-workflows returned every active workflow ID on the instance to any member, regardless of sharing, and workflow activation, deactivation and publication push events were broadcast to every connected client, carrying workflow IDs, version IDs and activation-error detail across users. The patch scopes both the listing and the push events through the sharing service, so a user only sees workflows they can access.
