High CVSS 8.8
CVE-2026-42200
Coolify is an open-source and self-hostable tool for managing servers, applications, and databases. Prior to 4.0.0-beta.474, PostgreSQL initialization script (generate_init_scripts() method in app/Actions/Database/StartPostgresql.php) filename handling did not sufficiently restrict paths, allowing an authenticated user to write files outside the intended directory and achieve command execution through database initialization. This issue is fixed in version 4.0.0-beta.474.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, with an ordinary user account and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Weakness
- An attacker-supplied file path is not confined, letting them read or write outside the intended folder.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
