Summary

Duplicate Advisory: Authenticated Users Can Exhaust Temporary Disk Storage via Data-Table File Uploads

Details

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-w867-jm58-p9pv. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

n8n before 2.28.0 (and before 1.123.58 on the 1.x branch) contains a disk space exhaustion vulnerability in the data-table file upload endpoint. The per-request quota check does not account for files already written to the shared temporary directory, allowing an authenticated user to repeatedly upload files that accumulate on disk until the periodic cleanup runs, potentially exhausting available disk space on the host.

Severity

4.3 (Medium)

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
