Summary
NocoDB before 2026.06.2 contains an SQL injection vulnerability in base-user.cte.utils.ts, which concatenates base members' email addresses into the SQL text of queries resolving user, created-by or last-modified-by fields. Registered users can set an email with a quoted local part containing a single quote to execute arbitrary SQL, exposing user records, API tokens and data-source credentials.
Who should check
Anyone running self-hosted NocoDB before 2026.06.2 where registered users can join bases and set their own email

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-2026-126291 (NocoDB before 2026.06.2 SQL Injection via User Email in Base User Query), 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.

Setup: unknown whether the bug needs a non-default feature or setting. Check the advisory.
Attacker needs: network access, low-privilege login, no user action.
CISA KEV: CVE-2026-126291 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-126291 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-8qgc-rxmx-p7cw
- https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/nocodb-before-2026.06.2-sql-injection-via-user-email-in-base-user-query
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-2026-126291
Is CVE-2026-126291 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 query that resolves user, created-by or last-modified-by fields builds SQL from an account email without safe handling, so arbitrary SQL can run against the database serving the base. The impact covers user records, API tokens and saved data-source credentials.Source: vulncheck.com, github.com
Which versions are affected by CVE-2026-126291?
nocodb: before 2026.06.2.Source: cve.now feed data
Am I affected, and how do I check?
Versions before 2026.06.2 are affected. The bug needs a query that resolves user, created-by or last-modified-by fields and an account whose email has a quoted local part containing a single quote. Check the NocoDB version in use and the email addresses on accounts in the base.Source: vulncheck.com, github.com
How do I fix CVE-2026-126291?
Upgrade NocoDB to 2026.06.2 or later, which is the listed fixed version.Source: vulncheck.com, github.com
