CVE-2026-61427
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
PraisonAI before 4.6.78 exposes the MCP HTTP-stream transport without authentication by default: the CLI --api-key option defaults to None, and the server only enforces Authorization/Bearer checks when an API key is configured. When an operator runs 'praisonai mcp serve --transport http-stream' without an API key, an unauthenticated client (no Authorization header, and no Origin header, which is also permitted) can initialize a session, enumerate the available tools (tools/list), and invoke tools (tools/call). Additionally, the dispatcher forwards tool-call arguments to handlers without validating them against the advertised inputSchema. The server binds to 127.0.0.1 by default, so remote exploitation requires the operator to bind to a network-accessible address (e.g., --host 0.0.0.0).

"value": "PraisonAI anterior a 4.6.78 expone el transporte HTTP-stream de MCP sin autenticación por defecto: la opción --api-key de la CLI por defecto es None, y el servidor solo aplica comprobaciones de Autorización/Bearer cuando se configura una clave API. Cuando un operador ejecuta ’praisonai mcp serve --transport http-stream’ sin una clave API, un cliente no autenticado (sin encabezado de Autorización, y sin encabezado de Origen, lo cual también está permitido) puede inicializar una sesión, enumerar las herramientas disponibles (tools/list), e invocar herramientas (tools/call). Además, el despachador reenvía los argumentos de llamada a herramienta a los manejadores sin validarlos contra el inputSchema anunciado. El servidor se enlaza a 127.0.0.1 por defecto, por lo que la explotación remota requiere que el operador se enlace a una dirección accesible por red (p. ej., --host 0.0.0.0)."
