Detailsinfo

A vulnerability has been found in MervinPraison praisonaiagents up to 1.6.58 and classified as problematic. Affected by this vulnerability is the function MentionsParser._process_file_mention of the component MentionsParser. The manipulation of the argument file_path with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-22. The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality. The summary by CVE is:

PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to praisonaiagents 1.6.59, MentionsParser._process_file_mention accepts file-mention values and falls back from workspace-relative resolution to Path(file_path) without traversal, symlink, or workspace-boundary validation. Prompt input from users, bots, or workflows can therefore read arbitrary files accessible to the process, including credentials, keys, environment files, source code, and system configuration. This issue is fixed in praisonaiagents 1.6.59.

The advisory is shared at github.com. This vulnerability is known as CVE-2026-57129 since 06/24/2026. The exploitation appears to be easy. The attack can be launched remotely.
