Description
Dokploy is a free, self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). From 0.29.3 until 0.29.13, the incomplete fix for CVE-2026-45628 leaves packages/server/src/db/schema/compose.ts branch fields without server-side validation, allowing a direct compose.update request to store a malicious customGitBranch, branch, gitlabBranch, bitbucketBranch, or giteaBranch. A low-privileged authenticated user can trigger compose.deploy, which passes the stored branch to shell-based Git clone commands in packages/server/src/utils/providers/git.ts, github.ts, gitlab.ts, bitbucket.ts, and gitea.ts, resulting in arbitrary host command execution. This issue is fixed in version 0.29.13.
Detection & mitigation playbook
VulnerabilityDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for the affected component. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Remediation status
No patched version of the affected component has shipped for CVE-2026-72867 yet. Where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range, and apply any maintainer-recommended mitigation.
Mitigate without a patch
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether CVE-2026-72867 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to CVE-2026-72867. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
