Publication date: 2026-11-13

Last updated on: 2026-11-13

Assigner: VulnCheck

Description
NocoDB before 2026.08.1 contains a race condition vulnerability in users.service.ts that allows holders of a valid reset token to perform multiple password changes by sending concurrent reset requests. Attackers can exploit the window created by slow bcrypt hashing before the token is cleared to overwrite the owner's new password and lock them out.

Executive Summary

NocoDB before 2026.08.1 has a race condition in users.service.ts during password resets. Attackers with a valid reset token can send multiple concurrent requests to change the password. Due to slow bcrypt hashing, the system validates the token but doesn't clear it immediately, allowing overlapping requests to overwrite the new password and lock the legitimate user out.

Detection Guidance

Check NocoDB version with: npm list nocodb or docker inspect <container> | grep NOCODB_VERSION. If version is before 2026.08.1, the system is vulnerable. Monitor for unusual password reset activity or concurrent reset requests in logs.

Impact Analysis

If you are a NocoDB user with a valid reset token, attackers could exploit this to change your password and lock you out of your account. Even if you change your password first, concurrent requests could overwrite it, preventing you from accessing your account.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade NocoDB to version 2026.08.1 or later immediately. If upgrading is not possible, disable password reset functionality temporarily or restrict concurrent reset requests at the network level.
