CVE-2026-57131: PraisonAI: Jobs API exposes agent-execution endpoints with no authentication

PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to 4.6.58, praisonai.jobs.server.createapp mounts praisonai.jobs.router.createrouter under /api/v1/runs without authentication or per-job authorization.

Should you act?

Critical and remotely reachable

No known exploitation yet, but it is network-reachable without credentials. This signal is computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS data; it is not an editorial verdict.

  • Not in CISA KEV, but CISA’s SSVC assessment records a public proof-of-concept, so attack code exists.
  • EPSS 1.0%, percentile 62: FIRST’s model estimates a 1.0% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 62% of all scored CVEs (moderate). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
  • Remotely reachable with no login and no user interaction. If the vulnerable service is exposed to the internet, prioritize it.
  • Only applies if your dependency tree includes praisonai (PyPI) < 4.6.59, fixed in 4.6.59. Check your lockfile, including transitive dependencies.

What it is

PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to 4.6.58, praisonai.jobs.server.createapp mounts praisonai.jobs.router.createrouter under /api/v1/runs without authentication or per-job authorization. Network clients can submit attacker-controlled prompts and agent configuration, list and read jobs, stream results, and cancel or delete other jobs, exposing service credentials and connected tool capabilities to unauthorized agent execution. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.6.58.
