Node-Red is a low-code programming for event-driven applications built using nodejs. Node-RED 1.2.7 and earlier has a vulnerability which allows arbitrary path traversal via the Projects API. If the Projects feature is enabled, a user with `projects.read` permission is able to access any file via the Projects API. The issue has been patched in Node-RED 1.2.8. The vulnerability applies only to the Projects feature which is not enabled by default in Node-RED. The primary workaround is not give untrusted users read access to the Node-RED editor.

Node-Red is a low-code programming for event-driven applications built using nodejs. Node-RED 1.2.7 and earlier contains a Prototype Pollution vulnerability in the admin API. A badly formed request can modify the prototype of the default JavaScript Object with the potential to affect the default behaviour of the Node-RED runtime. The vulnerability is patched in the 1.2.8 release. A workaround is to ensure only authorized users are able to access the editor url.

Node-RED-Dashboard before 2.26.2 allows ui_base/js/..%2f directory traversal to read files.

A stored XSS vulnerability is present within node-red (version: <= 0.20.7) npm package, which is a visual tool for wiring the Internet of Things. This issue will allow the attacker to steal session cookies, deface web applications, etc.

It is possible to inject JavaScript within node-red-dashboard versions prior to version 2.17.0 due to the ui_notification node accepting raw HTML by default.
