How to Fix CVE-2026-53927

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected NocoDB dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

nocodb fixed: Latest secure release 
npm install nocodb@Latest secure release
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-2026-53927, 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 the patched release), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls nocodb command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-918: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), where the web server receives a url or similar request from an upstream component and retrieves the contents of this url, but it does not sufficiently ensure that the request is being sent to the expected destination. 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 The spreadsheet-fetch endpoint (`axiosRequestMake`) accepted URLs whose path contained a permitted extension anywhere in the string, and applied a hand-rolled regex blocklist that omitted `127.0.0.0/8` and `169.254.0.0/16`, allowing the cloud-metadata endpoint to be reached with a crafted URL. ### Details The extension matcher is now anchored to the end of the path or immediately before the query string (`/\.(xls|xlsx|xlsm|ods|ots)(\?|$)/i` and `/\.(csv)(\?|$)/i`), so `http://169.254.169.254/credentials/.xlsx` no longer satisfies the format gate. The hand-rolled IP blocklist is removed in favour of `useAgent(url)` from `request-filtering-agent`, which blocks private and loopback ranges at the socket layer. ### Impact Authenticated users with editor permission could read cloud metadata and other internal HTTP endpoints reachable from the NocoDB process. On affected installs the spreadsheet import path was a credential-exfiltration primitive on cloud hosts. ### Credit This issue was reported by Devel Group Security Research Team through [@TREXNEGRO](https://github.com/TREXNEGRO). It was independently reported by [@l3tchupkt](https://github.com/l3tchupkt).
