saltcorn — Vulnerabilities & Security Advisories 4

Saltcorn is a low-code platform for building web applications and databases. Historically, it has been vulnerable to remote code execution, cross-site scripting, and privilege escalation vulnerabilities, primarily due to improper input validation and access control flaws. The platform's open-source nature has led to several security incidents, with four CVEs recorded to date. These vulnerabilities often stem from its flexible architecture allowing dynamic code execution and insufficient sanitization of user inputs. While Saltcorn enables rapid application development, its security track record indicates a need for rigorous input handling and access control implementation to prevent common web exploitation patterns.
