Description
Summary
The spreadsheet-fetch endpoint (`axiosRequestMake`) accepted URLs whose path
contained a permitted extension anywhere in the string, and applied a hand-rolled
regex blocklist that omitted `127.0.0.0/8` and `169.254.0.0/16`, allowing the
cloud-metadata endpoint to be reached with a crafted URL.
Details
The extension matcher is now anchored to the end of the path or immediately before
the query string (`/\.(xls|xlsx|xlsm|ods|ots)(\?|$)/i` and `/\.(csv)(\?|$)/i`), so
`http://169.254.169.254/credentials/.xlsx` no longer satisfies the format gate. The
hand-rolled IP blocklist is removed in favour of `useAgent(url)` from
`request-filtering-agent`, which blocks private and loopback ranges at the socket
layer.
Impact
Authenticated users with editor permission could read cloud metadata and other
internal HTTP endpoints reachable from the NocoDB process. On affected installs the
spreadsheet import path was a credential-exfiltration primitive on cloud hosts.
