AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
CVE-2025-59157 is a critical command injection vulnerability in Coolify versions prior to v4.0.0-beta.420.7. It occurs in the Git Repository field during project creation, where user input is not properly sanitized. This allows an attacker, even with regular member privileges, to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands on the underlying server during the deployment workflow, potentially leading to full system compromise. [1]
How does this vulnerability affect compliance with common standards and regulations (like GDPR, HIPAA)?:
The vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying server, potentially leading to full system compromise including unauthorized access, modification, or deletion of sensitive data. This could result in violations of data protection regulations such as GDPR and HIPAA, which require safeguarding sensitive personal and health information. Therefore, exploitation of this vulnerability may lead to non-compliance with these standards due to compromised confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected data. [1]
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can have severe impacts, including allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands on your server with potentially root-level privileges. This can lead to unauthorized reading, creation, modification, or deletion of sensitive system files, privilege escalation, and full system compromise, severely affecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your system. [1]
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
Upgrade Coolify to version v4.0.0-beta.420.7 or later, as this version contains the patch that fixes the command injection vulnerability in the Git Repository field during project creation. Until the upgrade is applied, restrict access to Coolify to trusted users only, especially limiting regular member user privileges, to reduce the risk of exploitation. [1]
