CVE-2026-72739
When a compose with a maliciously crafted name or service definition is deployed, the shell metacharacters are interpreted as command separators, allowing arbitrary command execution on the Docker host.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.56%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
Dokploy is a free, self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). Prior to 0.29.13, the createCommand() function constructs shell commands by interpolating compose service names and configuration into bash command strings. When a compose with a maliciously crafted name or service definition is deployed, the shell metacharacters are interpreted as command separators, allowing arbitrary command execution on the Docker host. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.29.13.
