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 2026.05.1, the base-migration endpoint accepted a caller-supplied URL that the migration worker dereferenced without enforcing protocol or destination, allowing scheme abuse (file:, ftp:, etc.) and probing of internal HTTP destinations. This vulnerability is fixed in 2026.05.1.

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 confidence

NocoDB's base-migration endpoint accepts caller-supplied URLs without validating the protocol or destination, allowing the migration worker to dereference arbitrary URLs. This enables scheme abuse (file:, ftp:, etc.) and SSRF attacks to probe internal HTTP services.

MitigationUpgrade NocoDB to version 2026.05.1 or later, which implements proper URL validation enforcing allowed protocols and blocking internal destination probing.

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. Verify NocoDB installation
    Check if NocoDB is running in your environment by querying the process list, container registry, or installed packages
    Affected if NocoDB is installed and running
  2. Determine NocoDB version
    Run npm list nocodb or check the Docker image tag, package.json, or NocoDB admin UI About page for the version number
    Affected if Version is earlier than 2026.05.1
  3. Identify base-migration endpoint exposure
    Check network exposure of the NocoDB API endpoint at /api/v1/db/migration or similar base-migration paths using curl or network scanning tools
    Affected if The migration endpoint is externally accessible without authentication or is accessible to untrusted users
  4. Review API access controls
    Examine NocoDB authentication configuration and API access policies to determine if the migration endpoint permits unauthenticated or low-privilege access
    Affected if The base-migration endpoint allows requests from unauthenticated or low-privilege users
  5. Check for exploitation indicators
    Review application logs for requests to the migration endpoint with unusual URL schemes (file:, ftp:, http://localhost, http://127.0.0.1) or patterns indicating internal network probing
    Affected if Suspicious URL schemes or internal network requests appear in logs

If NocoDB version is below 2026.05.1 and the base-migration endpoint is accessible to untrusted users, the environment is vulnerable
