Description
Nextcloud is an open source content collaboration platform. From versions 0.7.0 to before 0.7.7, 0.8.0 to before 0.8.10, 0.9.0 to before 0.9.8, and 1.0.0 to before 1.0.4, an authenticated attacker with access to the Tables app may be able to execute arbitrary up to 20 bytes long SQL queries, through a stored injection. With carefully crafted input it is possible to break out of the length limitation. The attacker could use this to extract information from the database, or modify data. This issue has been patched in versions 0.7.7, 0.8.10, 0.9.8, 1.0.4, and 2.0.0.
Affected Products
tablesnextcloudDetection & mitigation playbook
Vendor / applianceDetect
Inventory every nextcloud tables deployment and check each version against the affected-products list above. Because the exploit targets the running system rather than your application code, also watch for exploitation at the network and runtime layer — O3 flags the exploit behaviour from runtime telemetry and egress traffic even before a vulnerable build is confirmed.
Fix
Apply the nextcloud tables security patch or hotfix for CVE-2026-45545 on the affected version, following the vendor advisory for your exact build.
Workarounds
Cut exposure now: restrict the management/admin interface to trusted networks, segment the device, and apply the vendor's recommended configuration mitigations and any WAF/IPS signature. O3's runtime protection blocks the exploit chain at execution, holding the line on unpatched or end-of-life systems until you can patch.
How O3 protects you
O3 detects and blocks CVE-2026-45545 exploitation at runtime: eBPF exploit-chain detection, plus L7 egress monitoring that catches the post-exploitation callback and severs the attacker's outbound channel.
Tailored to CVE-2026-45545. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is CVE-2026-45545 being exploited in your environment?
O3's eBPF runtime sensors and L7 egress monitoring detect and block the CVE-2026-45545 exploit chain at execution — protecting unpatched and end-of-life systems until the vendor patch is applied.
