Summary

NocoDB before 2026.09.0 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows authenticated Editor users to execute scripts by storing crafted attachment MIME types like text/html;image/png. Attackers can write the value through the records API so the /dltemp signed URL serves HTML inline, stealing session tokens from localStorage to impersonate victims.

Check your systems with an agent

Paste this into a coding or ops agent. It checks your systems read-only and reports a table per asset.

Check whether my systems are affected by CVE-2026-126269 (NocoDB before 2026.09.0 Stored XSS via Attachment MIME Type), using the cve.now data below.

Rules: work read-only. Do not run exploit code, proof-of-concept scripts or scanners that send attack payloads, and do not change any configuration, package, image or deployment. Report findings only.

What cve.now has for CVE-2026-126269 (entry last updated 2026-11-13):
Affected:
- nocodb nocodb: fixed in 2026.09.0
Fixed versions: 2026.09.0.
Conditions (all must be true for the bug to be hit):
- NocoDB versions before 2026.09.0 (source: https://github.com/nocodb/nocodb/security/advisories/GHSA-3f7w-wqf7-786q)
- Attacker must be able to store an attachment cell value through the records API (base Editor role or above) (source: https://github.com/nocodb/nocodb/security/advisories/GHSA-3f7w-wqf7-786q)
Setup: unknown whether the bug needs a non-default feature or setting. Check the advisory.
Attacker needs: network access, low-privilege login, a user action.
CISA KEV: CVE-2026-126269 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-126269 only. If you also check another CVE, look up its own KEV status; never assume it from this one.

How to check:
- Installed software: check what is actually running, not what a repo declares. Read the version from each host, container image and Kubernetes node (the binary's version output, the OS package database, image layers), and check whether the conditions above hold there. Distribution packages may carry a backported fix under an older version number; confirm against the distribution's own advisory.

Verify against the linked advisories before concluding, and cite the date you read each one:
- https://github.com/nocodb/nocodb/security/advisories/GHSA-3f7w-wqf7-786q
- https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/nocodb-before-2026.09.0-stored-xss-via-attachment-mime-type
Do not conclude an asset is unaffected unless you checked it and the evidence covers both its version and the conditions above. If you could not check something, mark it unknown and say what is missing.

Report a table with one row per asset and these columns: Asset | Version or build | Status (affected, fixed, not applicable, unknown) | Compensating controls | Exposure (internet-facing, internal, none) | Evidence | Next action.

Questions about CVE-2026-126269

Is CVE-2026-126269 being exploited?

It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked.Source: cve.now feed data

What does this mean?

A stored cross-site scripting flaw tied to attachment MIME types lets script run in the NocoDB origin in a victim's browser. That script can read the session token from localStorage and impersonate the victim through the authenticated API.Source: github.com

Which versions are affected by CVE-2026-126269?

nocodb: before 2026.09.0.Source: cve.now feed data

Am I affected, and how do I check?

Versions of NocoDB before 2026.09.0 are in scope. The attack path requires a base Editor role or above to store an attachment cell value through the records API, so the installed version and base role assignments are the things to check.Source: github.com

How do I fix CVE-2026-126269?

Upgrade NocoDB to 2026.09.0 or later, which is the fixed version listed for this vulnerability.Source: github.com
