CVE-2026-72738

CRITICALPre-NVD 9.99.9
EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This critical-severity CVE scores 9.9 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).

Dokploy is a free, self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). Prior to 0.29.13, the backup.listBackupFiles tRPC endpoint in apps/dokploy/server/api/routers/backup.ts passes the search parameter through normalizeS3Path and interpolates it into an rclone lsjson command executed by child_process.exec(), allowing an authenticated user with backup:read permission to execute arbitrary commands on the Dokploy host. This issue is fixed in version 0.29.13.
