Shared-view password disclosure via plaintext database storage
Published Mar 2, 2026 · Updated Mar 2, 2026
Plaintext password storage in NocoDB before 0.301.3 allows attackers to read shared-view passwords via database access. The password column in nc_views stores unhashed values, and public-datas.service.ts, public-metas.service.ts, and calendar-datas.service.ts verify them with direct string inequality. Exploitation requires prior access to the metadata database; disclosure is limited to shared-view passwords, with additional risk only when a password is reused.
