NocoDB: Plaintext Password Comparison in Shared Views
The shared-view password check fell back to strict-equality (===) comparison for
legacy plaintext passwords, leaking the password's length and per-character prefix
through response timing.
The bcrypt branch (hashes starting with $2a$/$2b$) was unaffected. The legacy
fallback in View.ts now uses crypto.timingSafeEqual and a same-length dummy
compare on the length-mismatch path, so total comparison time is approximately
length-independent. The EE dashboard model's verifyPassword is patched the same way.
A network-positioned attacker could mount a timing oracle against shared views whose
passwords predated the bcrypt migration. Exploitation requires the ability to time
shared-view authentication responses but no prior authentication.
This issue was reported by [@Proscan-one](https://github.com/Proscan-one).
This issue can be reached over the network, attack complexity is low, an attacker needs no privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. Rated impact: confidentiality low, integrity none, availability none.
