Command Injection in Dokploy Self-Hosted PaaS

Publication date: 2026-08-10

Last updated on: 2026-08-10

Assigner: GitHub, Inc.

Description

Dokploy is a free, self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). Prior to 0.29.13, packages/server/src/utils/providers/git.ts parses the user-controlled customGitUrl with sanitizeRepoPathSSH and interpolates its domain into the ssh-keyscan command from addHostToKnownHostsCommand without shell quoting, allowing an authenticated member with service deployment permission and an attached SSH key to execute arbitrary commands on the Dokploy host during deployment. This issue is fixed in version 0.29.13.

Exploitability

CWE

Attack-Flow Graph

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is in Dokploy, a self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). It allows an authenticated user with service deployment permissions and an attached SSH key to execute arbitrary commands on the Dokploy host during deployment. The issue occurs because user-controlled input in the customGitUrl is not properly sanitized or quoted when passed to a system command, enabling command injection.

Detection Guidance

Check Dokploy version with 'dokploy --version'. If it is below 0.29.13, the system is vulnerable. Review deployment logs for unexpected SSH commands or host modifications.

Impact Analysis

If you use Dokploy versions before 0.29.13, an attacker with deployment permissions could run malicious commands on your server. This could lead to unauthorized access, data theft, or system compromise. The impact depends on your server's permissions and the commands executed.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access or data breaches, which may violate compliance requirements under GDPR, HIPAA, or other regulations. Organizations using affected versions may face legal penalties, reputational damage, or loss of certification if data is compromised.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade Dokploy to version 0.29.13 or later immediately. Remove unnecessary SSH keys from user accounts with deployment permissions. Monitor for unauthorized command execution.
