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.
CVE-2026-42200
This high-severity CVE scores 8.8 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.5%, top 58% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
