• npm nocodb: < 2026.04.1 → fixed in 2026.04.1

Description

Summary The password-reset page rendered the URL token directly into a JavaScript string literal in a server-rendered EJS template. EJS `` HTML-entity-encodes a fixed set of characters but does not escape single quotes or backslashes, so a crafted token could break out of the JS string context and execute attacker-controlled script in the NocoDB origin. Triggering required only that a victim follow a malicious password-reset link. Details The vulnerable template embedded the token as: ```ejs token: '', ``` A token containing `';alert(document.cookie);//` closes the single-quoted string and runs arbitrary JavaScript. The fix moves the token into an HTML attribute (`data-token="…"`) and reads it from `dataset.token` at runtime, so EJS's HTML-entity escaping is sufficient. Impact • Reflected XSS in the NocoDB origin via a phished password-reset URL. • No authentication required to trigger; affects any user who clicks the crafted link. • Same-origin script can read auth state and act on the victim's behalf.
