Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
NocoDB is software for building databases as spreadsheets. Prior to version 0.301.3, shared view passwords were stored in plaintext in the database and compared using direct string equality. This issue has been patched in version 0.301.3.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

NocoDB versions prior to 0.301.3 stored shared view passwords in plaintext within the database rather than using proper hashing mechanisms. Additionally, password comparison was performed using direct string equality rather than constant-time comparison, which could potentially expose the application to timing-based attacks.

MitigationUpgrade NocoDB to version 0.301.3 or later to remediate the plaintext password storage vulnerability. Consider rotating shared view passwords as a precautionary measure.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check installed NocoDB version
    Run `nc -v` or check the package.json file in the NocoDB installation directory, or inspect the About page in the NocoDB UI
    Affected if version is lower than 0.301.3
  2. Identify shared view password storage in database
    Connect to the NocoDB database and query tables related to shared views (commonly _nc_shared_views or similar). Look at columns that store password data - check if values appear as plaintext strings rather than hashed values
    Affected if password column contains plaintext strings that can be read directly
  3. Verify password hashing implementation
    Examine the NocoDB source code or configuration files for how shared view passwords are handled. Look for use of bcrypt, argon2, or similar hashing libraries versus raw storage
    Affected if no hashing library is used for shared view passwords or passwords are stored in plaintext format
  4. Check password comparison method
    Examine the authentication logic for shared views in the codebase. Look for use of `===` or `==` operators for password comparison rather than constant-time comparison functions
    Affected if password comparison uses direct string equality operators instead of constant-time comparison

You are affected if NocoDB version is below 0.301.3 and shared view passwords are stored in plaintext in the database or compared using non-constant-time methods.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 0.301.3 or later
Fixed in 0.301.3
Interim mitigation

Upgrade NocoDB to version 0.301.3 or later to remediate the plaintext password storage vulnerability. Consider rotating shared view passwords as a precautionary measure.

Recommended fix High confidence

0.301.3

  1. 1. Backup the Nocodb database before performing any upgrade.
  2. 2. Upgrade Nocodb to version 0.301.3 or later.
  3. 3. After upgrading, verify that shared view passwords are now stored using proper hashing (not plaintext).
  4. 4. If existing shared view passwords exist, consider re-saving them to ensure they are hashed with the new implementation.
  5. 5. Verify the application functions correctly after upgrade.
