What is CVE-2026-41182?
CVE-2026-41182 is a cwe-200: exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor flaw in langchain-ai langsmith-sdk. It carries a CVSS base score of 5.3 (medium). It is not currently listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
From the source record: LangSmith Client SDKs provide SDK's for interacting with the LangSmith platform. Prior to version 0.5.19 of the JavaScript SDK and version 0.7.31 of the Python SDK, the LangSmith SDK's output redaction controls (hideOutputs in JS, hide_outputs in Python) do not apply to streaming token events. When an LLM run produces streaming output, each chunk is recorded as a new_token event containing the raw token value. These events bypass the redaction pipeline entirely , prepareRunCreateOrUpdateInputs (JS) and _hide_run_outputs (Python) only process the inputs and outputs fields on a run, never the events array. As a result, applications relying on output redaction to prevent sensitive LLM output from being stored in LangSmith will still leak the full streamed content via run events. Version 0.5.19 of the JavaScript SDK and version 0.7.31 of the Python SDK fix the issue.
Why it matters in practice: The blast radius depends on how the affected service is exposed. An internet-facing instance with no compensating controls is the highest-risk configuration.
Am I affected?
You are affected if your installation of langsmith-sdk matches a version listed in the Affected row above.
Check the running version against the Affected row above using the product's admin console or --version flag.
How to fix CVE-2026-41182
Apply the vendor patch. Target the build named in the Fixed in row above (See vendor advisory). The runnable command set below covers the most common deployment patterns for langsmith-sdk.
Generic upgrade pattern
If the affected product is a Linux package, upgrade via the system package manager:
# Debian / Ubuntu
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y
# RHEL / Rocky / Alma
sudo dnf upgrade --security -y
If it ships as a Windows installer, download the patched build from the vendor advisory and:
# Vendor advisory: https://github.com/langchain-ai/langsmith-sdk/security/advisories/GHSA-rr7j-v2q5-chgv
Start-Process msiexec.exe -ArgumentList '/i <patched-installer>.msi /qn /norestart' -Wait
Get-ItemProperty HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\* | \
Where-Object DisplayName -match '<product-name>' | Select-Object DisplayName, DisplayVersion
After applying the patch
- Restart the service or device so the patched binary loads.
- Confirm the running version matches the Fixed in row using the verification command below.
- Rotate credentials and API keys that the affected service could access if the asset was exposed during the disclosure window.
If you can't patch immediately
Until the patch lands, narrow the attack surface with these runnable controls.
Restrict network exposure
Block public access to the affected service at the perimeter. Allow only trusted source IPs.
# Linux iptables: only allow trusted admin subnet
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -s 10.10.10.0/24 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j DROP
sudo iptables-save | sudo tee /etc/iptables/rules.v4
# Windows firewall: only allow trusted admin subnet on management port
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Restrict-Mgmt-Allow" -Direction Inbound -Action Allow `
-RemoteAddress 10.10.10.0/24 -Protocol TCP -LocalPort 443
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Restrict-Mgmt-Deny" -Direction Inbound -Action Block `
-Protocol TCP -LocalPort 443
Mitigations are temporary. Apply the vendor patch as soon as a maintenance window opens.
How to verify the fix worked
Confirm the patched build is the one actually running.
Check the running version against the Affected row above using the product's admin console or --version flag.
Expected: a version at or above the patched build named in the vendor advisory.
Also worth doing: pull recent log windows for indicators of compromise listed in the vendor advisory, and re-run an authenticated vulnerability scan with up-to-date signatures.
