Summary
Dokploy is a free, self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS). Prior to 0.29.13, Dokploy allows an authenticated low-privilege member to execute arbitrary commands on the control-plane host because the volumeName field accepted by volumeBackup.create and volumeBackup.runManually is interpolated without quoting in packages/server/src/utils/volume-backups/backup.ts and executed through child_process.exec, with Docker socket access making execution host/root-equivalent. This issue is fixed in version 0.29.13.
