NocoDB from 2026.04.0 before 2026.08.0 contains an improper privilege management vulnerability in org-users.service.ts where updating a user's legacy organization role rewrites their default-workspace role.

Executive Summary

NocoDB versions between 2026.04.0 and 2026.08.0 have an improper privilege management flaw in org-users.service.ts. When a user's legacy organization role is updated, their default-workspace role is silently reset to Creator or Viewer, even if they were previously revoked. This grants them elevated access across all default-workspace bases without proper authorization checks.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, check NocoDB versions between 2026.04.0 and 2026.08.0. Review logs for unauthorized role updates in org-users.service.ts. Inspect user sessions for elevated privileges without proper authorization.

Impact Analysis

Attackers with revoked access can regain Creator-level permissions, allowing them to read, write, and modify schemas across all default-workspace databases. This happens silently using existing session tokens, bypassing prior revocations and potentially leading to data breaches or unauthorized changes.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized data access or modification, violating GDPR's data protection principles and HIPAA's access control requirements. It undermines least-privilege access and auditability, increasing non-compliance risks for affected organizations.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade NocoDB to version 2026.08.0 or later immediately. Review and revoke any elevated privileges granted to users. Monitor for suspicious role changes in logs. Ensure proper authorization checks are enforced during role updates.
