Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in MervinPraison PraisonAI up to 4.6.61. Affected is the function open of the file src/praisonai/praisonai/tools/multiedit.py of the component multiedit. The manipulation of the argument filepath with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as 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. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to 4.6.62, src/praisonai/praisonai/tools/multiedit.py passes the LLM-controlled filepath parameter directly to open for reading and writing without traversal rejection, symlink resolution, a workspace boundary, or protected-path checks. Prompt-influenced agents can read files through edit and diff behavior or overwrite files accessible to the process, exposing secrets and enabling persistence or application tampering. This issue is fixed in 4.6.62.

The advisory is available at github.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2026-57145 since 06/24/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely.
