It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-40117 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- praisonaiagents (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 1.5.128\n- praisonaiagents (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 1.5.128\n- praisonaiagents (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 1.5.128\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-40117/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-40117/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-40117","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-40117/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-40117","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-grrg-5cg9-58pf","PYSEC-2026-2949"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Python AI agent library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can read arbitrary files from the filesystem via prompt injection in PraisonAIAgents due to missing workspace boundaries in read_skill_file.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"praisonaiagents","vendor":"praison"}],"cvss":{"score":6.2,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"PraisonAIAgents is a multi-agent teams system.

Unlike file_tools.read_file which enforces workspace boundary confinement, and unlike run_skill_script which requires critical-level approval, read_skill_file has neither protection.
