n8n 是一个开源的工作流自动化平台。在版本 1.123.76、2.37.7 和 2.38.2 之前，当 GitHub 返回 HTTP 422 且节点复用现有 Webhook 时，GitHub 触发器虽然生成了 Webhook 密钥（webhook secret），但随后将其丢弃。这导致工作流的静态数据中仅保留了 而缺少 ，从而使 签名验证在缺少存储密钥的情况下仍接受推送请求。受影响的逻辑位于 以及处理 HTTP 422 错误时复用 Webhook 的代码路径。该问题已在版本 1.123.76、2.37.7 和 2

Vulnerability Title
n8n: GitHub Trigger 422 Reuse Path Skips Webhook Secret Storage, Causing Signature Verification to Fail-Open
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
n8n is an open source workflow automation platform. Prior to 1.123.76, 2.37.7, and 2.38.2, the GitHub Trigger generated a webhook secret but discarded it when GitHub returned HTTP 422 and the node reused an existing webhook. Workflow static data then retained webhookId without webhookSecret, and X-Hub-Signature-256 verification accepted deliveries without a stored secret. The affected logic includes packages/nodes-base/nodes/Github/GithubTriggerHelpers.ts and the 422 webhook reuse path. This issue is fixed in versions 1.123.76, 2.37.7 and 2.38.2.
