What to know
- What it is
- PraisonAI before 4.6.78 fails to safely encode deployment configuration values when generating Python source code for API servers. Attackers can inject arbitrary Python expressions through the deploy.api.host and agents_file configuration parameters that execute when the generated server starts or handles requests.
- Affected
- praisonai (pip) <= 4.6.77
- Fix
- Upgrade praisonai to 4.6.78 or later.
- Exploitation
- No known exploitation
Story map
At a glance
praisonai: Amber, patch this week. The AICoder UI component exposes write_to_file and execute_command tools to the LLM with no path validation and no command sanitization. An attacker can achieve arbitrary file write to any location on the filesystem (including /root/.ssh/authorized_keys, /etc/crontab) and arbitrary command execution through prompt inj…
