# CVE-2026-72868: Dokploy: Member-role RCE as host root via destination.testConnection rclone shell injection

Status: published. Published: 2026-08-10. Updated: 2026-11-10.

Dokploy is a free, self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). Prior to 0.29.13, apps/dokploy/server/api/routers/destination.ts interpolates the accessKey, secretAccessKey, region, endpoint, provider, and bucket fields from destination.testConnection into an rclone ls command executed through child_process.exec. The `withPermission("destination", "create")` path permits a low-privileged organization member to reach the mutation, close a quoted argument with a crafted field, and execute arbitrary commands in the root Dokploy container, which has access to the host Docker socket. This issue is fixed in version 0.29.13.
