CVE-2026-55533
HIGH 8.2 PoC AVAILABLEPraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to praisonai 4.6.58, create_auth_middleware() allows requests when auth=api-key lacks PRAISONAI_API_KEY or JWT authentication lacks PRAISONAI_JWT_SECRET. An externally bound Recipe server can therefore accept unauthenticated POST /v1/recipes/run requests despite authentication being enabled. This issue is fixed in version 4.6.58.
Public exploit or PoC code exists. Modeled probability is still low, but the barrier to attack is reduced — watch closely.
