Official description
Dokploy is a free, self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). Prior to 0.29.13, settings.readTraefikFile in apps/dokploy/server/api/routers/settings.ts passes a path accepted by apiReadTraefikConfig to readConfigInPath in packages/server/src/utils/traefik/application.ts, where configPath is interpolated into execAsyncRemote as cat ${configPath}, allowing a user with traefikFiles.read permission to execute arbitrary commands on a managed server through shell metacharacters. This issue is fixed in version 0.29.13.
