Authenticated file write and command execution via certificatePath
Published Aug 10, 2026 · Updated Aug 10, 2026
Path traversal in Dokploy before 0.29.13 allows remote authenticated users to write files or delete directories via certificatePath. The API schema accepts certificatePath from the client, and the certificate service joins it beneath the certificate root without checking the resolved path; remote-server paths also enter unquoted shell commands. Certificate create or delete permission is required, and direct command execution additionally requires a certificate bound to a remote server.
