npm install nocodb@0.301.3
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

npm ls nocodb

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2026-28360, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls nocodb

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Nocodb in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 0.301.3), your application is affected.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-256: Plaintext Storage of a Password, where the product stores a password in plaintext within resources such as memory or files. In Nocodb, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

### Summary Shared view passwords were stored in plaintext in the database and compared using direct string equality. ### Details The `password` column in `nc_views` stored unhashed passwords. Verification used `!==` comparison across `public-datas.service.ts`, `public-metas.service.ts`, and `calendar-datas.service.ts`. ### Impact If the database is compromised, shared view passwords are immediately readable. Risk is limited to password reuse scenarios. ### Credit This issue was reported by [@Tulgaaaaaaaa](https://github.com/Tulgaaaaaaaa).
