DescriptionCVE.org

Dokploy is a free, self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). Prior to 0.29.13, apps/dokploy/server/api/routers/destination.ts interpolates the accessKey, secretAccessKey, region, endpoint, provider, and bucket fields from destination.testConnection into an rclone ls command executed through child_process.exec. The withPermission("destination", "create") path permits a low-privileged organization member to reach the mutation, close a quoted argument with a crafted field, and execute arbitrary commands in the root Dokploy container, which has access to the host Docker socket. This issue is fixed in version 0.29.13.

AnalysisAI

Command injection in Dokploy self-hosted PaaS before 0.29.13 lets a low-privileged organization member run arbitrary OS commands inside the root Dokploy container, which holds the host Docker socket, effectively yielding host takeover. The destination.testConnection mutation interpolates unsanitized S3 fields (accessKey, secretAccessKey, region, endpoint, provider, bucket) into an rclone shell command run via child_process.exec. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, but the fix is confirmed in v0.29.13 and the root cause is clearly documented in the upstream patch (PR #4873).

Technical ContextAI

Dokploy is a Node.js/TypeScript self-hostable Platform-as-a-Service used to deploy and manage applications and databases via Docker. The vulnerable code in apps/dokploy/server/api/routers/destination.ts builds an rclone ls command by string-interpolating user-supplied S3 destination fields inside double-quoted shell arguments, then executes it through child_process.exec, which spawns /bin/sh. This is a textbook CWE-78 (OS Command Injection): because the fields sit inside a quoted string with no escaping, an attacker closes the quote and appends shell metacharacters. The confirmed remediation replaces manual quoting with the shell-quote library's quote() across destination.ts, backup.ts, certificate.ts, mount.ts, and adds a strict VOLUME_NAME_REGEX for volume backups, indicating this was a systemic quoting flaw, not a single field.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade to Dokploy 0.29.13 or later, which replaces unsafe string interpolation with shell-quote's quote() in the destination, backup, certificate, and mount code paths and adds regex validation for volume names (see GHSA-f6x8-vfwh-8hjr and PR #4873). If you cannot upgrade immediately, reduce exposure by removing or downgrading the 'destination:create' permission from all non-administrator organization members so untrusted accounts cannot reach the testConnection mutation, and restrict network access to the Dokploy management interface to trusted operators only; note these controls limit but do not eliminate risk, since any account still holding destination-create can trigger the flaw. Because the container mounts the host Docker socket, also treat the Dokploy host as fully compromisable and avoid granting new low-trust members until patched.
