NocoDB: Path Traversal via SQLite Source Filename
Packages
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Summary
An authenticated user with base-create permission can attach a SQLite source pointing at
an arbitrary file on the NocoDB host, including NocoDB's own internal databases.
### Details
The SQLite client and the base/integration create services accepted a caller-supplied
filename and passed it to `fs.exists` and `fs.open('w')` without restricting the location.
A user could point a source at `noco.db`, at a tenant database under `nc_minimal_dbs/`,
or at any writable path the NocoDB process can reach, and then read or overwrite its
contents through the regular table APIs.
### Impact
Disclosure and modification of NocoDB internal state, of other tenants' databases, and
of any file the NocoDB process can read or write. Authentication and base-create
permission are required.
