CVE-2026-72869

Dokploy: Authenticated OS command injection in backup.restoreBackupWithLogs (databaseName) leading to host RCE

State: Published
Severity: 9.9 Critical
Published: Aug 10, 2026
Updated: Aug 11, 2026
Reserved: Aug 10, 2026

Description

Dokploy is a free, self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). Prior to 0.29.13, the backup.restoreBackupWithLogs tRPC subscription passes the databaseName parameter to restore builders in packages/server/src/utils/restore/utils.ts, where PostgreSQL, MariaDB, MySQL, and MongoDB commands embed the value in nested shell text executed by Node.js exec. An authenticated user with backup:restore permission can supply a crafted databaseName that the host /bin/sh expands before docker exec, resulting in arbitrary commands running in the Docker-privileged host context. This issue is fixed in version 0.29.13.
