CVE-2025-22609Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Managed-server command execution via private-key reassignment

Published Jan 24, 2025 · Updated Feb 12, 2025

Missing authorization in Coolify before 4.0.0-beta.361 allows remote authenticated users to execute commands on managed servers. The ShowPrivateKey::setPrivateKey method accepts an arbitrary private-key identifier without verifying authorization and assigns that key to the user's server. Exploitation requires matching the victim server's address, SSH port, and user configuration, after which the Terminal feature runs commands with that server account's privileges.
