Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Summary With NCSECUREATTACHMENTS=true, an authenticated uploader could deliver .html or .svg attachments that the browser rendered inline from the NocoDB origin instead of forcing a download. Details The signed attachment handler stored response-header overrides under PascalCase keys (ResponseContentDisposition, ResponseContentType) while the controller that served the file read them under lowercase-hyphen names (response-content-disposition). The mismatch dropped the Content-Disposition: attachment header, leaving Express to auto-render .html, .svg, and similar inline. The fix corrects the key case and additionally forces Content-Disposition: attachment and Content-Type: application/octet-stream for any MIME type not on the preview allowlist. Impact Stored Cross-Site Scripting in the NocoDB origin from inline-rendered uploads. Script executing in the victim's browser can read the auth JWT from localStorage. Exploitation requires authenticated upload permission and the…

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2026-53929

Advisory: NocoDB: Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Secure Attachment
IDs: CVE-2026-53929, GHSA-6mhr-74x2-98v9
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-53929 (revision 3, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 12:57 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Medium (CVSS 5.1)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor response not established. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- npm nocodb: affected <= 0.301.3

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- `npm ls nocodb --all`: lists every installed copy and version, including transitive ones. Run in the project root after `npm ci`.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on nocodb.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
