CVE-2026-41950 — Langgenius Dify security vulnerability

Medium CVSS 6.5

Dify before version 1.14.0 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability that allows authenticated users to read the full contents of files uploaded by other users within the same tenant by supplying an arbitrary file UUID in the files array of a chat-messages request. Attackers can exploit insufficient permission verification in the chat-messages endpoints to access files without ownership validation, bypassing workspace separation and signed URL protections to retrieve sensitive file contents through workflow processing.

Matched remediation archetype

Authorization bypass, IDOR, and cross-tenant access

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Map object and action authorization checks across API, UI, batch, import/export, and background-job paths.
  • Identify tenant, ownership, role, and policy boundaries for affected resources and administrative operations.
  • Use synthetic fixtures to compare intended access matrices without accessing another user's real data.

Remediate safely

  • Enforce server-side authorization at each resource access and state transition using the authenticated principal and trusted tenant context.
  • Scope data queries by tenant and ownership; treat client-supplied identifiers, roles, and policy claims as untrusted.
  • Add deny-by-default policy tests for horizontal and vertical access across every affected transport.
