An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-47394 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- praisonai (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 4.6.40\n- praisonai (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 4.6.40\n- PraisonAI (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 4.6.40\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-2026-47394/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-47394/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-47394","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-47394/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-47394","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9cr9-25q5-8prj","PYSEC-2026-2908"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PraisonAI Python library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can read arbitrary files on the host via path traversal in PraisonAI MCP workflow handlers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"},{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"},{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to version 4.6.40, the fix for GHSA-9mqq-jqxf-grvw / CVE-2026-44336 is incomplete. The original advisory description named four vulnerable handlers in `mcp_server/adapters/cli_tools.py`. Commit `68cc9427` (\"fix(security): harden MCP rules path handling…\") added a `_resolve_rule_path()` helper and applied it to `rules.create`, `rules.show`, and `rules.delete`. `workflow.show` was left unchanged. Two adjacent handlers in the same file have the same pattern, `workflow.validate` and `deploy.validate`. Neither was mentioned in the original advisory. Both remained  unchanged. The original advisory also identified the dispatcher (`server.py:281-298`) as a root cause. It accepts unvalidated `**kwargs` from `params[\"arguments\"]` with no enforcement against the tool's declared `input_schema`. That code is unchanged prior to version 4.6.40. A single unauthenticated MCP `tools/call` to `praisonai.workflow.show` returns the contents of any file the host user can read: `/etc/passwd`, `~/.ssh/id_rsa`, `~/.aws/credentials`, or any project `.env`. Version 4.6.40 contains an updated fix.","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 vulnerable to unauthenticated arbitrary file read via MCP workflow.show, workflow.validate, deploy.validate","id":"CVE-2026-47394","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2026"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"PraisonAI CLI automatically resolves @url mentions in prompt text and can read loopback URLs into model context","id":"CVE-2026-47395"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.6.40"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"PraisonAI","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-9cr9-25q5-8prj"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.6.40"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"praisonai","purl":"pkg:pypi/praisonai","source":"GHSA-9cr9-25q5-8prj"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.6.40"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"praisonai","purl":"pkg:pypi/praisonai","source":"PYSEC-2026-2908"}],"prev":{"headline":"PraisonAI `deploy --type api` emits a Flask server with authentication disabled by default","id":"CVE-2026-47393"},"products":["PraisonAI"],"published":"2026-07-21","related":[],"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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-21","vendors":["MervinPraison"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can read arbitrary files on the host via path traversal in PraisonAI MCP workflow handlers.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-47394/"}
