CVE-2026-21445 is a missing-authentication vulnerability in Langflow monitoring API endpoints. In affected releases, critical endpoints handling conversations, transactions, and message operations do not enforce an active-user authentication dependency. A remote unauthenticated user can read sensitive conversation and transaction data and delete messages associated with a session.

This repository provides a proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit for CVE-2026-21445, targeting the Langflow product (versions prior to 1.5.1) on Microsoft Windows. The main exploit script, 'CVE-2026-21445.py', is heavily obfuscated using PyArmor, making the actual exploit logic unreadable. The repository includes the PyArmor runtime and a license file to enable execution of the obfuscated code. Documentation files (README.md, docs/description.md, docs/mitigation.md) clarify that the PoC is for academic and defensive research only, and provide mitigation advice (upgrade Langflow, restrict network exposure, enable authentication and TLS). The README and mitigation docs indicate the exploit likely targets a network-exposed service and may involve malformed BSON requests. The repository structure is typical for a PoC: a main exploit script, obfuscation runtime, license, documentation, and screenshots. No hardcoded network endpoints or IPs are visible due to obfuscation, but the attack vector is network-based. The exploit is not weaponized and is intended for controlled research environments.
