## Impact

The n8n Edit Image node passed its output format to the underlying image library without validation, so a crafted value could write bytes to a location outside the node's working directory. An authenticated user able to run workflows could use this to write arbitrary files in the n8n instance.

## Patches

The issue has been fixed in n8n versions 1.123.67, 2.31.5, and 2.32.1. Users should upgrade to one of these versions or later to remediate the vulnerability.

## Workarounds

If upgrading is not immediately possible, administrators should consider the following temporary mitigations: - Restrict n8n instance access to fully trusted users only. - Disable the Edit Image node by adding `n8n-nodes-base.editImage` to the `NODES_EXCLUDE` environment variable.

These workarounds do not fully remediate the risk and should only be used as short-term mitigation measures.
