Background
nocodb is an open-source tool that allows users to create and manage databases with a user-friendly interface. It provides a web-based GUI for managing database tables, queries, and records. However, a SQL injection vulnerability has been discovered in nocodb, which can be exploited by an authenticated attacker with creator access to query the underlying database.
Vulnerability Detail
The SQL injection vulnerability in nocodb allows an attacker to inject arbitrary SQL queries through a specific parameter and endpoint. By crafting a specially designed payload, the attacker can execute SQL queries on the database and potentially retrieve sensitive information. This is a blind SQL injection, meaning the attacker may need to use time-based payloads to infer the query result based on the response time. The vulnerable code is located in the SqliteClient.ts file, specifically in the triggerList method. The impact of this vulnerability is information disclosure.
