CVE-2026-46547
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 · uneditedNocoDB is software for building databases as spreadsheets. Prior to 2026.04.1, a reflected XSS vulnerability exists in the Page Leaving Warning page. The ncRedirectUrl and ncBackUrl query parameters are used in window.location.href and <a> tag bindings without validation, allowing javascript: URI injection. This vulnerability is fixed in 2026.04.1.
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 confidenceNocoDB versions prior to 2026.04.1 contain a reflected XSS vulnerability in the Page Leaving Warning functionality. The ncRedirectUrl and ncBackUrl query parameters are directly used in window.location.href JavaScript bindings and <a> tag href attributes without any input validation or sanitization, allowing attackers to inject malicious javascript: URIs.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Check NocoDB versionAccess the NocoDB instance and navigate to the version information, typically found in the UI footer, settings menu, or by querying the API endpoint that returns version metadata. Compare the installed version to the affected range (prior to 2026.04.1).Affected if The installed version is lower than 2026.04.1
-
Identify if ncRedirectUrl or ncBackUrl parameters are processedReview application traffic or source code to determine if the ncRedirectUrl and ncBackUrl query parameters are accepted and processed by the application.Affected if The application accepts and uses ncRedirectUrl or ncBackUrl parameters without sanitization
-
Verify Page Leaving Warning functionality is presentNavigate through the application or examine the JavaScript bundles to confirm the Page Leaving Warning feature is implemented and actively uses the vulnerable parameters.Affected if The Page Leaving Warning feature is enabled and utilizes the ncRedirectUrl or ncBackUrl parameters
-
Test for unsanitized reflection in responseSubmit a request with a javascript: URI in the ncRedirectUrl or ncBackUrl parameter (for example: ?ncRedirectUrl=javascript:alert(1)) and inspect the HTML response to see if the value appears unmodified in a window.location.href binding or <a> tag href attribute.Affected if The submitted javascript: URI appears unsanitized in the page response within JavaScript or HTML context
A user is affected if they are running NocoDB versions prior to 2026.04.1 and the application exposes the ncRedirectUrl or ncBackUrl parameters without proper sanitization.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedUpgrade to NocoDB version 2026.04.1 or later. If immediate upgrade is not possible, implement input validation to reject URLs that do not begin with http://, https://, or a relative path protocol.
2026.04.1
- Identify the current NocoDB installation method (Docker, npm, or other)
- Stop the current NocoDB service
- Pull or download NocoDB version 2026.04.1
- Deploy the updated version 2026.04.1
- Restart the NocoDB service
- Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the version
- Test that the ncRedirectUrl and ncBackUrl parameters are properly sanitized and no longer accept javascript: URIs
