📄 Description (English)

NocoDB is software for building databases as spreadsheets. Prior to version 0.301.3, comments rendered via v-html without sanitization enable stored XSS. This issue has been patched in version 0.301.3.

🤖 AI Executive Summary

NocoDB versions prior to 0.301.3 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the comments feature due to unsanitized v-html rendering. This allows authenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts that execute in other users' browsers when viewing comments. While currently unpatched and without public exploits, the vulnerability poses a moderate risk to organizations using NocoDB for collaborative database management, particularly those handling sensitive data.

📄 Description (Arabic)

🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia Impact Assessment
Saudi organizations using NocoDB for collaborative database management face moderate risk, particularly in government agencies (NCA, MODA), financial institutions managing non-critical databases, healthcare facilities using NocoDB for internal data management, and educational institutions. The vulnerability primarily affects internal users with database access, limiting external attack surface. However, organizations handling sensitive citizen data or financial records could face data exposure through comment injection. Telecom and energy sectors using NocoDB for operational databases represent secondary risk vectors.

🔧 Remediation Steps (English)
Immediate Actions:
1. Audit all NocoDB instances in your environment and document current versions
2. Restrict access to NocoDB comments feature to trusted users only
3. Implement network segmentation to limit NocoDB access to authorized personnel
4. Review comment history for suspicious or malicious content

Patching Guidance:
1. Upgrade to NocoDB version 0.301.3 or later immediately when available
2. If upgrade is not immediately possible, disable the comments feature in NocoDB settings
3. Implement input validation at the application level if custom deployments exist

Compensating Controls:
1. Deploy Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block XSS payloads in HTTP requests
2. Implement Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict script execution
3. Enable browser security features (X-XSS-Protection, X-Content-Type-Options headers)
4. Conduct regular security awareness training on XSS risks

Detection Rules:
1. Monitor for HTML/JavaScript tags in NocoDB comment submissions (script, iframe, onerror, onload)
2. Alert on unusual comment activity or comments from service accounts
3. Log all comment modifications and review for suspicious patterns
4. Implement endpoint detection for browser-based XSS exploitation attempts
🔧 خطوات المعالجة (العربية)
الإجراءات الفورية:
1. تدقيق جميع مثيلات NocoDB في بيئتك وتوثيق الإصدارات الحالية
2. تقييد الوصول إلى ميزة التعليقات في NocoDB للمستخدمين الموثوقين فقط
3. تنفيذ تقسيم الشبكة لتحديد وصول NocoDB للموظفين المصرح لهم
4. مراجعة سجل التعليقات للبحث عن محتوى مريب أو ضار

إرشادات التصحيح:
1. الترقية إلى إصدار NocoDB 0.301.3 أو أحدث فوراً عند توفره
2. إذا لم يكن الترقية ممكنة على الفور، قم بتعطيل ميزة التعليقات في إعدادات NocoDB
3. تنفيذ التحقق من الإدخال على مستوى التطبيق إذا كانت هناك نشرات مخصصة

الضوابط البديلة:
1. نشر قواعد جدار حماية تطبيقات الويب (WAF) للكشف عن حمولات XSS وحجبها
2. تنفيذ سياسة أمان المحتوى (CSP) لتقييد تنفيذ البرامج النصية
3. تفعيل ميزات أمان المتصفح (رؤوس X-XSS-Protection و X-Content-Type-Options)
4. إجراء تدريب منتظم على الوعي الأمني بشأن مخاطر XSS

قواعد الكشف:
1. مراقبة علامات HTML/JavaScript في تقديمات تعليقات NocoDB (script, iframe, onerror, onload)
2. التنبيه على نشاط التعليقات غير المعتاد أو التعليقات من حسابات الخدمة
3. تسجيل جميع تعديلات التعليقات ومراجعتها للبحث عن أنماط مريبة
4. تنفيذ الكشف عن نقاط النهاية لمحاولات استغلال XSS القائمة على المتصفح
