CVE-2026-47378
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, Public shared-view endpoints exposed values from columns that the view owner had hidden, via three independent paths: groupBy returned raw values for any column named in the request, filter and sort arrays operated on hidden columns enabling boolean-blind extraction, and the related-data list accepted arbitrary link-column IDs from other tables in the same base. 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 prior to 2026.04.1 had an information disclosure vulnerability in public shared-view endpoints where hidden column values could be extracted through three independent vectors: groupBy requests returned raw values for any specified column regardless of visibility, filter/sort operations could be performed on hidden columns enabling extraction without boolean feedback, and the related-data list accepted arbitrary link-column IDs from other tables in the same base.

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 installed NocoDB versionAccess the NocoDB administration panel or check the version via API endpoint /api/v1/version or inspect the package.json file in the installation directory. Compare the version number to 2026.04.1.Affected if The installed version is earlier than 2026.04.1 (e.g., 2026.03.x, 2026.02.x, or earlier)
-
Verify public shared-view feature is enabledCheck the NocoDB system settings or inspect the UI for any shared views that have been published as public (no authentication required). Look for shared view configurations in the Views section of tables.Affected if Public shared views exist and are accessible without authentication
-
Identify hidden columns in shared viewsReview all published shared views and identify which columns have been marked as hidden (typically via column settings in the table designer). Document the names and IDs of hidden columns.Affected if Hidden columns exist in any publicly shared view
-
Test groupBy vector for hidden column exposureCreate a test API request to a public shared-view endpoint using the groupBy parameter with a hidden column name. For example: GET /api/v1/tables/{tableId}/views/{viewId}?groupBy={hiddenColumnName}. Observe if raw hidden column values are returned in the response.Affected if groupBy requests return actual data values from hidden columns rather than restricting access
-
Test filter/sort vector on hidden columnsSend a filter or sort request to a public shared-view endpoint targeting a hidden column (e.g., using filter JSON in the request body or query parameters). Verify if the operation executes without returning an access denied error.Affected if Filter or sort operations can be performed on hidden columns in shared views without error
-
Test related-data list vector for cross-table link exposureMake a related-data API request to a public shared view using a link-column ID from a different table within the same base. For example: GET /api/v1/tables/{tableId}/views/{viewId}/related/{differentTableLinkColumnId}. Check if data from other tables is returned.Affected if The related-data endpoint accepts and returns data for link-column IDs from tables other than the current view's table
The environment is affected if NocoDB version is earlier than 2026.04.1 AND public shared views with hidden columns are in use, particularly if any of the three vectors (groupBy, filter/sort, or related-data) allow access to hidden column values.

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 which properly enforces hidden column restrictions across all shared-view endpoints.
2026.04.1
- 1. Identify the current NocoDB version in use by checking the deployed application or Docker image tag
- 2. Backup all database data and configuration before performing the upgrade
- 3. For Docker deployments: Update the image tag to the 2026.04.1 release (e.g., update docker-compose.yml or image: nocodb/nocodb:2026.04.1)
- 4. For npm/package installations: Run the appropriate package manager command to upgrade to version 2026.04.1
- 5. Restart the NocoDB service to apply the changes
- 6. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the NocoDB version in the UI or via API
- 7. Test that public shared-view endpoints now correctly filter hidden columns as expected
