DescriptionCVE.org

Pelican Panel versions before 1.0.0-beta35 enforce startup write permissions only through disabled form controls rather than server-side authorization checks. Attackers with startup.read permission can craft Livewire state updates to invoke afterStateUpdated callbacks and modify startup commands, docker images, and variables to execute arbitrary commands in the container.

AnalysisAI

Authenticated users who hold only the read-only startup.read permission on a Pelican Panel server can escalate that access into remote command execution inside the managed container, because write protection for startup settings is enforced solely through disabled client-side form controls rather than a server-side authorization check. By pushing crafted Livewire state updates, the attacker triggers afterStateUpdated callbacks that rewrite startup commands, Docker images and variables, and those values are then executed when the container starts. …
