Answer in brief
CVE-2026-72766 records a Unknown severity vulnerability in n8n before 1.123.67 Arbitrary File Read via Send Email Node. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps n8n-io/n8n (generic), n8n-io/n8n (generic), n8n-io/n8n (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.
Analysis pending evidence review
HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
A CVSS score is not reported in the current record. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

n8n before 1.123.67, 2.x before 2.31.5, and 2.32.x before 2.32.1 contain a type confusion vulnerability in the Send Email node, which does not enforce that its message fields are strings. A crafted non-string value supplied from a workflow expression into the text or HTML body field can be interpreted by the underlying mail library (Nodemailer) as a file path or URL, allowing arbitrary local file disclosure and server-side request forgery (SSRF). Exploitation requires a pre-existing active workflow with an unauthenticated webhook, valid SMTP credentials configured on the node, and untrusted input mapped directly into the body field; this is not a default configuration.
