n8n versions before 1.123.64 fail to properly mask custom HTTP header credentials in LLM sub-node execution data, writing plaintext API keys and secrets to workflow execution records. Authenticated users with access to execution data can read exposed header values and credentials that persist in the database and can be exported.

This medium-severity CVE scores 5.1 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit-prediction score not yet available (the EPSS model rescores nightly; freshly-published CVEs typically appear within 48 hours). GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
