How severe is CVE-2026-28359?

No CVSS score has been assigned to CVE-2026-28359 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2026-28359?

CVE-2026-28359 affects the following packages: nocodb (npm). Ecosystems affected: npm.

How do I fix CVE-2026-28359?

Update nocodb to 0.301.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-28359 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2026-28359 in my npm dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for nocodb, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2026-28359 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Escape or sanitise the affected output on the server side rather than relying on client-side filtering, and add a Content-Security-Policy that blocks inline script execution so injected markup cannot run even if it reaches the page.

Is CVE-2026-28359 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2026-28359 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2026-28359?

CVE-2026-28359 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.2%, placing it in the 7th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2026-28359?

CVE-2026-28359 is classified as Cross-site Scripting (XSS) (CWE-79). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

When was CVE-2026-28359 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2026-28359 was published on March 2, 2026 and was last updated on October 28, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Description

Summary

An authenticated user with Editor role can inject arbitrary HTML into Rich Text cells by bypassing the TipTap editor and sending raw HTML via the API.

Details

The TipTap editor sanitizes HTML client-side, but the backend stores raw HTML without server-side sanitization. The stored content is rendered via v-html in TextArea.vue through NcMarkdownParser.parse() which performs no sanitization.

Impact

Stored XSS — malicious scripts execute for any user viewing the cell.
