| CVE | Severity | CVSS | Published | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2021-22915 | CRITICAL | 9.8 | Jun 11, 2021 | Nextcloud server before 19.0.11, 20.0.10, 21.0.2 is vulnerable to brute force attacks due to lack of inclusion of IPv6 subnets in rate-limiting considerations. This could potentially result in an attacker bypassing rate-limit controls such as the Nextcloud brute-force protection. |
| CVE-2021-32802 | CRITICAL | 9.3 | Sep 7, 2021 | Nextcloud server is an open source, self hosted personal cloud. Nextcloud supports rendering image previews for user provided file content. For some image types, the Nextcloud server was invoking a third-party library that wasn't suited for untrusted user-supplied content. There are several security concerns with passing user-generated content to this library, such as Server-Side-Request-Forgery, file disclosure or potentially executing code on the system. The risk depends on your system configu |
| CVE-2023-26482 | CRITICAL | 9.0 | Mar 30, 2023 | Nextcloud server is an open source home cloud implementation. In affected versions a missing scope validation allowed users to create workflows which are designed to be only available for administrators. Some workflows are designed to be RCE by invoking defined scripts, in order to generate PDFs, invoking webhooks or running scripts on the server. Due to this combination depending on the available apps the issue can result in a RCE at the end. It is recommended that the Nextcloud Server is upgra |
| CVE-2021-32688 | HIGH | 8.8 | Jul 12, 2021 | Nextcloud Server is a Nextcloud package that handles data storage. Nextcloud Server supports application specific tokens for authentication purposes. These tokens are supposed to be granted to a specific applications (e.g. DAV sync clients), and can also be configured by the user to not have any filesystem access. Due to a lacking permission check, the tokens were able to change their own permissions in versions prior to 19.0.13, 20.0.11, and 21.0.3. Thus fileystem limited tokens were able to gr |
| CVE-2023-35172 | HIGH | 8.7 | Jun 23, 2023 | NextCloud Server and NextCloud Enterprise Server provide file storage for Nextcloud, a self-hosted productivity platform. In NextCloud Server versions 25.0.0 until 25.0.7 and 26.0.0 until 26.0.2 and Nextcloud Enterprise Server versions 21.0.0 until 21.0.9.12, 22.0.0 until 22.2.10.12, 23.0.0 until 23.0.12.7, 24.0.0 until 24.0.12.2, 25.0.0 until 25.0.7, and 26.0.0 until 26.0.2, an attacker can bruteforce the password reset links.

| CVE-2023-32320 | HIGH | 8.7 | Jun 22, 2023 | Nextcloud Server is a data storage system for Nextcloud, a self-hosted productivity platform. When multiple requests are sent in parallel, all of them were executed even if the amount of faulty requests succeeded the limit by the time the response was sent to the client. This allowed someone to send as many requests the server could handle in parallel to bruteforce protected details instead of the configured limit, default 8.

| CVE-2021-32656 | HIGH | 8.6 | Jun 1, 2021 | Nextcloud Server is a Nextcloud package that handles data storage. A vulnerability in federated share exists in versions prior to 19.0.11, 20.0.10, and 21.0.2. An attacker can gain access to basic information about users of a server by accessing a public link that a legitimate server user added as a federated share. This happens because Nextcloud supports sharing registered users with other Nextcloud servers, which can be done automatically when selecting the "Add server automatically once a fed |
| CVE-2023-48239 | HIGH | 8.5 | Nov 21, 2023 | Nextcloud Server provides data storage for Nextcloud, an open source cloud platform.

| CVE-2026-45281 | HIGH | 8.1 | Jun 1, 2026 | Nextcloud is an open source content collaboration platform. In Nextcloud Server from versions 32.0.0 to before 32.0.9, and 33.0.0 to before 33.0.3, with the knowledge of other users’ principal URL an attacker could possibly send a request to gain full access to their calendar. Therefore, the attacker must be an authenticated user. This is because of improper authorization controls in the backend of the calendar. If the attacker had access to the calendar, they would be able to view and modify it |
| CVE-2023-39963 | HIGH | 8.1 | Aug 10, 2023 | Nextcloud Server provides data storage for Nextcloud, an open source cloud platform. Starting in version 20.0.0 and prior to versions 20.0.14.15, 21.0.9.13, 22.2.10.14, 23.0.12.8, 24.0.12.5, 25.0.9, 26.0.4, and 27.0.1, a missing password confirmation allowed an attacker, after successfully stealing a session from a logged in user, to create app passwords for the victim. Nextcloud server versions 25.0.9, 26.0.4, and 27.0.1 and Nextcloud Enterprise Server versions 20.0.14.15, 21.0.9.13, 22.2.10.14 |
| CVE-2021-41177 | HIGH | 8.1 | Oct 25, 2021 | Nextcloud is an open-source, self-hosted productivity platform. Prior to versions 20.0.13, 21.0.5, and 22.2.0, Nextcloud Server did not implement a database backend for rate-limiting purposes. Any component of Nextcloud using rate-limits (as as `AnonRateThrottle` or `UserRateThrottle`) was thus not rate limited on instances not having a memory cache backend configured. In the case of a default installation, this would notably include the rate-limits on the two factor codes. It is recommended tha |
| CVE-2021-32800 | HIGH | 8.1 | Sep 7, 2021 | Nextcloud server is an open source, self hosted personal cloud. In affected versions an attacker is able to bypass Two Factor Authentication in Nextcloud. Thus knowledge of a password, or access to a WebAuthN trusted device of a user was sufficient to gain access to an account. It is recommended that the Nextcloud Server is upgraded to 20.0.12, 21.0.4 or 22.1.0. There are no workaround for this vulnerability. |
| CVE-2021-32654 | HIGH | 8.1 | Jun 1, 2021 | Nextcloud Server is a Nextcloud package that handles data storage. In versions prior to 19.0.11, 20.0.10, and 21.0.2, an attacker is able to receive write/read privileges on any Federated File Share. Since public links can be added as federated file share, this can also be exploited on any public link. Users can upgrade to patched versions (19.0.11, 20.0.10 or 21.0.2) or, as a workaround, disable federated file sharing. |
| CVE-2023-39962 | HIGH | 7.7 | Aug 10, 2023 | Nextcloud Server provides data storage for Nextcloud, an open source cloud platform.
