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-2026-61427 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- praisonai (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 4.6.78\n- praisonai (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 4.6.78\n- praisonai (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 4.6.78\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-2026-61427/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-61427/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-61427","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-61427/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-61427","record":{"aliases":["CVE-2026-62178","GHSA-hc5v-gxvj-58wh","PYSEC-2026-4257"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"PraisonAI MCP server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can access MCP tools and execute arbitrary code if the server is bound to a network interface without an API key.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulnCheck","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"PraisonAI before 4.6.78 exposes the MCP HTTP-stream transport without authentication by default: the CLI --api-key option defaults to None, and the server only enforces Authorization/Bearer checks when an API key is configured. When an operator runs 'praisonai mcp serve --transport http-stream' without an API key, an unauthenticated client (no Authorization header, and no Origin header, which is also permitted) can initialize a session, enumerate the available tools (tools/list), and invoke tools (tools/call). Additionally, the dispatcher forwards tool-call arguments to handlers without validating them against the advertised inputSchema. The server binds to 127.0.0.1 by default, so remote exploitation requires the operator to bind to a network-accessible address (e.g., --host 0.0.0.0).","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 before 4.6.78 Authentication Bypass via HTTP-stream","id":"CVE-2026-61427","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"PraisonAI AgentMail before 4.6.78 Message Injection via Webhook","id":"CVE-2026-61428"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.6.78"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"praisonai","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-hc5v-gxvj-58wh"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.6.78"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"praisonai","purl":"pkg:pypi/praisonai","source":"GHSA-hc5v-gxvj-58wh"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.6.78"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"praisonai","purl":"pkg:pypi/praisonai","source":"PYSEC-2026-4257"}],"prev":{"headline":"PraisonAI before 1.7.3 Unauthenticated Agent Access via Insecure Defaults","id":"CVE-2026-61426"},"products":["PraisonAI"],"published":"2026-07-15","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":"2026-07-16","vendors":["MervinPraison"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can access MCP tools and execute arbitrary code if the server is bound to a network interface without an API key.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-61427/"}
