What is CVE-2026-27957?

CVE-2026-27957 is a high-severity command injection vulnerability in coollabsio coolify, published on 30 Jun 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

Official description

Coolify is an open-source and self-hostable tool for managing servers, applications, and databases. Prior to 4.0.0-beta.464, an authenticated command injection vulnerability in the CA Certificate management feature allows any authenticated user to execute arbitrary commands as the configured SSH user on the managed server host. As the SSH user typically would have to either be root or part of the docker group for Coolify to function as intended, this provides complete compromise of the managed server and associated docker containers. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.0.0-beta.464.
