Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a privileged remote attacker to execute operating-system commands on an external PostgreSQL database host.
The vulnerability exists due to NocoDB's formula query builder interpolating function names from stored, attacker-controlled parsed trees into SQL without revalidation. A privileged remote attacker with a base Creator or Owner role can plant a malicious tree on a single-container SQLite metadata installation and trigger command execution when the connected PostgreSQL role permits server programs.
