CVE-2026-61434 Details
Description
PraisonAI versions before 4.6.78 contain an allowlist bypass vulnerability in shell command execution that allows attackers to execute restricted commands via find's built-in -exec, -execdir, and -delete actions. Attackers can craft find commands with these built-in actions to read blocked files, delete files, or execute non-allowlisted binaries without triggering shell metacharacter filters.
A vulnerability allowing allowlist bypass in shell command execution has been identified in PraisonAI versions prior to 4.6.78. This vulnerability allows attackers to execute restricted commands by exploiting the 'find' command's built-in actions, such as '-exec', '-execdir', and '-delete'. By crafting specific 'find' commands, attackers can read blocked files, delete files, or execute non-allowlisted binaries without being detected by shell metacharacter filters. The issue arises because the 'find' command is included in the safe command allowlist and its built-in actions can be used to bypass the intended command execution restrictions.
Users are advised to update to PraisonAI version 4.6.78 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched.
