Security issue thread - PHP and eMudhra cert compromise
-
From a security standpoint, what are the chances that an app will get compromised in the seconds it takes between the app start and triggering a manual update?
Relatively impossible to estimate. Usually, vulnerability scanners don't check whether your application runs or not. They simply send requests indefinitely, until they have a hit.
Anyhow, updating stopped apps isn't technically feasible.

@bazinga not exclusively. The same principle applies to pretty much any application outside Cloudron too. Sometimes, updates need to trigger hooks or migrations that require the application to be up. That's the main reason why.
-
Nextcloud's bundle still includes emSign ECC Root CA - G3 which Cloudron has no control over. But, maybe someone at Cloudron can report it to Nextcloud.

Also, while auditing for the eMudhra issue, I found certifi 2026.1.4 in the Python 3.14 virtual environment (/app/code/venv) of my Baserow app, io.baserow.cloudronapp@1.40.3 (Baserow 2.4.1). That is the current App Store version. I uninstalled it since I was not using it. Notification log shows it updated to that version last week.

We don't use upstream Nextcloud but have our own package. It's built with the ubuntu that has the security fix as well as latest PHP.

Specifically, the cert in /app/code/resources/config/ca-bundle.crt within the NextCloud container.
If you run
docker exec [nextcloud-containter-id] curl -sS -o /dev/null --cacert /app/code/resources/config/ca-bundle.crt https://dv-g3b-emudhra.we-have-a-problem.com/it goes through, proving the cert trusts the compromised chain. -

Hello @recliner2042
Baserow already fixed the issue https://github.com/baserow/baserow/pull/6494, but it is not yet released.
