An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-44336 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- praisonai (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 4.6.34\n- praisonai (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 4.6.34\n- PraisonAI (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 4.6.34\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-2026-44336/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44336/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-44336","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44336/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-44336","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9mqq-jqxf-grvw","PYSEC-2026-472"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PraisonAI MCP server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can exploit path traversal in PraisonAI MCP tools to write malicious .pth files, leading to arbitrary code execution.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"praisonai","vendor":"praison"}],"cvss":{"score":9.4,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"},{"id":"CWE-913","name":"Improper Control of Dynamically-Managed Code Resources"},{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"},{"id":"CWE-829","name":"Inclusion of Functionality from Untrusted Control Sphere"},{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to version 4.6.34, PraisonAI's MCP (Model Context Protocol) server (praisonai mcp serve) registers four file-handling tools by default — praisonai.rules.create, praisonai.rules.show, praisonai.rules.delete, and praisonai.workflow.show. Each accepts a path or filename string from MCP tools/call arguments and joins it onto ~/.praison/rules/ (or, for workflow.show, accepts an absolute path) with no containment check. The JSON-RPC dispatcher passes params[\"arguments\"] blind to each handler via **kwargs without validating against the advertised input schema. By setting rule_name=\"../../\u003csome-path\u003e\" an attacker walks out of the rules directory and writes any file the running user can write. Dropping a Python .pth file into the user site-packages directory escalates this primitive to arbitrary code execution in any subsequent Python process the user spawns — the next praisonai CLI invocation, an IDE script run, the user's python REPL, or any background Python service. This issue has been patched in version 4.6.34.","ecosystems":["PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"PraisonAI MCP `tools/call` path-traversal and RCE via Python `.pth` injection","id":"CVE-2026-44336","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2026"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"PraisonAI knowledge-store backends interpolate unvalidated collection names into SQL and CQL queries","id":"CVE-2026-44337"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.6.34"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"PraisonAI","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-9mqq-jqxf-grvw"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.6.34"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"praisonai","purl":"pkg:pypi/praisonai","source":"GHSA-9mqq-jqxf-grvw"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.6.34"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"praisonai","purl":"pkg:pypi/praisonai","source":"PYSEC-2026-472"}],"prev":{"headline":"SSRF bypass in PraisonAI","id":"CVE-2026-44335"},"products":["PraisonAI"],"published":"2026-05-08","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"PraisonAIAgents has a sandbox escape via exception frame traversal in `execute_code` (subprocess mode)","id":"CVE-2026-39888","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Incomplete fix for CVE-2026-34935: Command Injection in MervinPraison/PraisonAI","id":"CVE-2026-41497","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"PraisonAI: Critical RCE via `type: job` workflow YAML","id":"CVE-2026-40288","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-14"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"PraisonAI Affected by Remote Code Execution via YAML Deserialization in Agent Definition Loading","id":"CVE-2026-39890","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"PraisonAI: Second-Order SQL Injection in `get_all_user_threads`","id":"CVE-2026-34934","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"PraisonAI: OS Command Injection in MCPHandler.parse_mcp_command()","id":"CVE-2026-34935","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-03"},{"cvss_score":9.7,"headline":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') in praisonai","id":"CVE-2026-40088","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-09"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"PyPA Advisory Database","prefix":"PYSEC"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["MervinPraison"]},"summary":"Attackers can exploit path traversal in PraisonAI MCP tools to write malicious .pth files, leading to arbitrary code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44336/"}
