Dokploy versions prior to 0.29.13 are vulnerable due to improper validation of the composePath in the compose.update operation, allowing authenticated users with write and deploy permissions to execute arbitrary commands on the Docker host. This critical vulnerability (CVSS 9.9) can lead to full system compromise, making it imperative for organizations using Dokploy to prioritize upgrading to the patched version. All users of Dokploy should assess their exposure and apply the necessary updates immediately to mitigate potential risks.

Original NVD Description

Dokploy is a free, self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). Prior to 0.29.13, the compose.update operation stores an unvalidated composePath that packages/server/src/utils/builders/compose.ts and packages/server/src/services/compose.ts interpolate into docker compose -f, docker stack deploy -c, and touch shell commands executed through /bin/sh -c. An authenticated member with compose write and deploy permission can supply a crafted composePath, trigger compose.deploy or startCompose, and execute arbitrary operating-system commands in the Docker-privileged Dokploy host context. This issue is fixed in version 0.29.13.
