Description
PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. From version 4.2.1 to before version 4.6.59, PraisonAI's AgentOS FastAPI deployment surface remains unauthenticated in current main and in releases after the published patched version for GHSA-pm96-6xpr-978x / CVE-2026-40151. The chat route directly calls agent.chat(request.message). No-auth and wrong-bearer requests both execute the deployed agent. This is broader than passive metadata disclosure. In any deployment where AgentOS wraps agents with tools, private context, memory, API integrations, or cost-bearing model calls, an unauthenticated reachable client can drive those agents. This issue has been patched in version 4.6.59.

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability allows an unauthenticated or incorrectly authenticated requester to invoke the AgentOS chat endpoint, which immediately passes the received message to the deployed agent without any access control. Because AgentOS can be configured with private context, memory, and API integrations, an attacker can trigger arbitrary agent actions that may read sensitive data, manipulate internal state, or invoke paid model calls. This flaw exceeds simple data leakage and effectively enables remote execution of agent code with the permissions of the Service.

Affected Systems

MervinPraison PraisonAI, versions 4.2.1 through 4.6.58 inclusive, and all releases that were built after the GHSA‑pm96 patched release but did not incorporate the 4.6.59 fix, are vulnerable. The patch was released in version 4.6.59.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 9.8 indicates a critical severity. The EPSS is not available, but the lack of a KEV listing does not mitigate the risk. Attackers can exploit the flaw by sending simple HTTP requests to the chat endpoint over the network; no special privilege or additional authentication is required. The agent runs in the context of the running service, so any sensitive data held or any cost‑bearing API calls can be triggered by a remote actor.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade PraisonAI to version 4.6.59 or later to apply the official patch that secures the chat endpoint.
  • Restrict network access to the AgentOS FastAPI endpoint to trusted networks or employees only, using firewalls, VPNs, or access controls.
  • If upgrading immediately is not possible, verify that the endpoint requires a valid bearer token and reject requests with missing or invalid tokens before invoking the agent; adjust the configuration or code to enforce authentication.
  • Optionally reapply the fix for GHSA‑pm96‑6xpr‑978x to address related authentication issues.
  • Monitor access logs for anomalous chat requests and audit agent activity for any unauthorized actions.
