CVE-2026-40150 Details
Description
PraisonAIAgents is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to 1.5.128, the web_crawl() function in praisonaiagents/tools/web_crawl_tools.py accepts arbitrary URLs from AI agents with zero validation. No scheme allowlisting, hostname/IP blocklisting, or private network checks are applied before fetching. This allows an attacker (or prompt injection in crawled content) to force the agent to fetch cloud metadata endpoints, internal services, or local files via file:// URLs. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.5.128.
A vulnerability in the PraisonAIAgents web crawl tool prior to version 1.5.128 allows for server-side request forgery (SSRF) and arbitrary local file reading. The issue arises because the web_crawl() function accepts URLs from AI agents without any validation, such as scheme allowlisting or hostname/IP blocklisting. This lack of validation enables an attacker to manipulate the agent into fetching cloud metadata, internal services, or local files using file:// URLs. The vulnerability is particularly concerning as it can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information and internal resources.
Users are advised to update to PraisonAIAgents version 1.5.128 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
