This flaw allows authenticated users to bypass access controls and execute arbitrary workflows. The vulnerability stems from a lack of proper access validation when referencing workflow UUIDs. Attackers can exploit this by creating malicious workflows that reference UUIDs of victim workflows, enabling them to load and execute these workflows under attacker-controlled execution paths. This leads to potential exposure of sensitive victim workflow outputs and unintended triggering of workflow nodes with adverse side effects. This vulnerability poses a significant risk to the confidentiality and integrity of workflows within Heym environments.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"attack-chain\"\u003eAttack Chain\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn attacker authenticates to a Heym instance.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker identifies a victim workflow and obtains its UUID.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker creates a new workflow containing either an \u0026ldquo;execute\u0026rdquo; node or an \u0026ldquo;agent subWorkflowId\u0026rdquo;.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWithin the \u0026ldquo;execute\u0026rdquo; node or \u0026ldquo;agent subWorkflowId\u0026rdquo;, the attacker references the victim workflow\u0026rsquo;s UUID.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker executes their newly crafted workflow.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDue to the authorization bypass, the Heym system loads and executes the victim workflow under the attacker\u0026rsquo;s execution context.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker gains access to the victim workflow\u0026rsquo;s outputs.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorkflow nodes within the victim workflow are triggered with unintended side effects, potentially causing further damage.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ol\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"impact\"\u003eImpact\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuccessful exploitation of CVE-2026-45226 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary workflows without proper authorization.
