CVE-2025-64421

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Coolify up to version v4.0.0-beta.434 contains a vulnerability that allows a low-privileged user (member) to invite a high-privileged user (administrator). Although the first invitation attempt fails with an error, clicking the invite button a second time succeeds. This enables an attacker to invite themselves as an administrator, then reset the password and log in with admin privileges.

Risk Assessment

Privilege escalation risk: a user with limited access can gain full control over the Coolify instance, potentially leading to unauthorized access to managed applications, databases, and servers.

Recommendation

Immediately restrict the ability to invite users to administrators only and monitor for available patches. Consider temporarily disabling the invitation feature if possible until an official fix is applied.

Original NVD description (English source)

Coolify is an open-source and self-hostable tool for managing servers, applications, and databases. In Coolify versions up to and including v4.0.0-beta.434, a low privileged user (member) can invite a high privileged user. At first, the application will throw an error, but if the attacker clicks the invite button a second time, it actually works. This way, a low privileged user can invite themselves as an administrator to the Coolify instance. After the high privileged user is invited, the attacker can initiate a password reset and log in with the new admin. As of time of publication, it is unclear if a patch is available.
