Flowise - Insufficient Password Salt Rounds in Bcrypt Hashing

Description

Flowise before 3.0.13 uses bcrypt with default salt rounds of 5, providing only 32 iterations instead of the OWASP-recommended minimum of 10 rounds. Attackers can crack password hashes approximately 30 times faster with modern GPU hardware, potentially compromising all user accounts in a database breach scenario.
