Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Coolify is an open-source and self-hostable tool for managing servers, applications, and databases. Prior to 4.0.0-beta.474, POST /api/feedback has no authentication, no rate limiting, and no input validation, allowing arbitrary content to be forwarded directly to a Discord webhook and enabling spam, content injection, and webhook abuse. This issue is fixed in version 4.0.0-beta.474.

How this class of weakness works · CWE-306

A sensitive function is reachable with no authentication at all, so anyone who finds the endpoint can use it. These are routinely discovered by automated scanning. The fix is to require and enforce authentication on every privileged path, with no exceptions left open.

Recommended fix High confidence

4.0.0-beta.474

  1. 1. Back up your current Coolify installation and database before upgrading.
  2. 2. Identify your current Coolify version by checking the application or running `coolify --version` or checking the UI.
  3. 3. Upgrade Coolify to version 4.0.0-beta.474 or later. The exact upgrade method depends on your installation method (Docker, Kubernetes, or direct installation). For Docker-based deployments, pull the new image tag or use your orchestration tool to redeploy with the updated version.
  4. 4. After upgrading, verify that the /api/feedback endpoint now requires authentication by attempting an unauthored request - it should be rejected.
  5. 5. Confirm the Discord webhook functionality still works correctly with authenticated requests.
Caveat This is a beta version upgrade; beta releases may contain other changes or instabilities. Review release notes for 4.0.0-beta.474 for any breaking changes before upgrading.
