AI-suggested

European organizations should immediately upgrade all Coolify instances to version 4.0.0-beta.420.7 or later to apply the official patch that fixes the improper output encoding. Until the upgrade can be performed, organizations should restrict project creation permissions to trusted users only, minimizing the risk of malicious project names being introduced. Implement strict input validation and output encoding at the application layer to prevent injection of executable scripts. Administrators should be trained to recognize suspicious project names and avoid interacting with untrusted projects. Employ Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to reduce the impact of XSS by restricting script execution sources. Regularly audit user roles and permissions to ensure least privilege principles are enforced. Monitor logs for unusual administrative actions or project creations. Consider isolating Coolify administrative interfaces behind VPNs or zero-trust network access to limit exposure. Finally, maintain an incident response plan to quickly address any suspected exploitation.

Description

Coolify is an open-source and self-hostable tool for managing servers, applications, and databases. Coolify versions prior to and including v4.0.0-beta.420.6 are vulnerable to a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) attack in the project creation workflow. An authenticated user with low privileges (e.g., member role) can create a project with a maliciously crafted name containing embedded JavaScript. When an administrator later attempts to delete the project or its associated resource, the payload automatically executes in the admin’s browser context. Version 4.0.0-beta.420.7 contains a patch for the issue.
