CVE-2026-47416 Details
Description
PraisonAI Platform is the platform layer for the PraisonAI multi-agent teams system. Versions prior to 0.1.4 are vulnerable to vertical privilege escalation. The `PATCH /workspaces/{workspace_id}/members/{user_id}` endpoint is gated by `require_workspace_member(workspace_id)`, which defaults to `min_role="member"` and is never overridden by the route. The handler then calls `MemberService.update_role(workspace_id, user_id, body.role)` which sets the target member's role to whatever the request body specifies, with no check that the caller has owner-or-admin privilege, no check that the new role is not higher than the caller's own, and no check that the caller is not silently promoting themselves. PraisonAI Platform version 0.1.4 patches the issue.
A vertical privilege escalation vulnerability has been identified in the PraisonAI Platform, specifically in versions prior to 0.1.4. The issue arises in the `PATCH /workspaces/{workspace_id}/members/{user_id}` endpoint, which is protected by a workspace member requirement that defaults to the 'member' role. This endpoint allows users to update member roles without proper authorization checks, enabling a member to promote themselves to an owner role. The vulnerability exists because the role update function does not verify if the caller has the necessary privileges or if the new role exceeds the caller's current role.
Users can update to PraisonAI Platform version 0.1.4 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched.
