Description

Dokploy is a free, self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). Prior to 0.29.13, the WebSocket handler in apps/dokploy/server/wss/terminal.ts validates a session but does not authorize access to the requested server. An authenticated user can connect to /terminal?serverId=local, select the special serverId=local branch, and obtain an interactive terminal on the Dokploy host without an organization role or server-access check. This issue is fixed in version 0.29.13.

Affected products

dokploy: before 0.29.13
