What it detects

This rule detects HTTP POST requests to the Langflow validate code API that contain Python execution markers such as exec or import decorators. This corresponds to CVE-2025-3248 which allows unauthenticated remote code execution. Routine validation traffic does not embed decorator based exec payloads.
