n8n versions before 2.39.6 and 2.40.0 before 2.40.1 contain a credentials leak vulnerability in the Wekan and Baserow username-and-password credentials that sends unencrypted passwords to unvalidated hosts. Attackers with credential update permissions can modify the host field to receive account passwords at arbitrary hosts, bypassing domain validation controls.
The product transmits or stores authentication credentials, but it uses an insecure method that is susceptible to unauthorized interception and/or retrieval.
