CVE-2026-56075 Details
Description
PraisonAI before 4.5.128 contains an arbitrary shell command execution vulnerability where the UI modules hardcode approval_mode to auto, overriding administrator configuration from PRAISON_APPROVAL_MODE environment variable. Authenticated attackers can instruct the LLM agent to execute arbitrary shell commands via subprocess.run with shell=True, bypassing the manual approval gate and insufficient command sanitization blocklists.
An arbitrary shell command execution vulnerability exists in PraisonAI versions prior to 4.5.128. The issue arises because the UI modules hardcode the approval mode to 'auto', disregarding administrator settings specified in the 'PRAISON_APPROVAL_MODE' environment variable. This vulnerability allows authenticated attackers to command the LLM agent to execute arbitrary shell commands using 'subprocess.run' with 'shell=True', bypassing the manual approval process and exploiting inadequate command sanitization.
Users are advised to update PraisonAI to version 4.5.128 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched.
