EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This critical-severity CVE scores 9.4 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 80% 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).

No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.

Dokploy is a free, self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). Prior to 0.29.8, the getRegistryCommands() function in packages/server/src/utils/cluster/upload.ts interpolates registry.password and registry.registryUrl directly into a shell command without escaping. An authenticated user with project access can configure malicious registry credentials and trigger a swarm deployment to execute arbitrary OS commands on the Dokploy server, read or modify host files, and access other containers through Docker. This issue is fixed in version 0.29.8.
