Local File Inclusion in Coolify Leading to RCE

Publication date: 2026-07-06

Last updated on: 2026-07-06

Assigner: GitHub, Inc.

Description

Coolify is an open-source and self-hostable tool for managing servers, applications, and databases. Prior to 4.0.0-beta.471, LocalFileVolume::saveStorageOnServer builds shell commands using unescaped fs_path and parent_dir values before validation, and submitFileStorage does not validate the user-controlled file-mount path before creating a volume, allowing an authenticated user who can add file storage to execute commands when the storage is saved. This issue is fixed in version 4.0.0-beta.471.

Attack-Flow Graph

Executive Summary

This vulnerability exists in Coolify, an open-source tool for managing servers, applications, and databases. Before version 4.0.0-beta.471, the LocalFileVolume::saveStorageOnServer function builds shell commands using unescaped file system path (fs_path) and parent directory (parent_dir) values before validating them. Additionally, the submitFileStorage function does not validate the user-controlled file-mount path before creating a volume. This allows an authenticated user who can add file storage to execute arbitrary commands when the storage is saved.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can have severe impacts as it allows an authenticated user with permission to add file storage to execute arbitrary commands on the server. This can lead to full compromise of the affected system, including unauthorized access, data modification, data destruction, or disruption of services.

Mitigation Strategies

To mitigate this vulnerability, upgrade Coolify to version 4.0.0-beta.471 or later, where the issue has been fixed.
