SCA: security update for PraisonAI (GHSA-86qc-r5v2-v6x6)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 442546

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to version 4.6.40, PraisonAI's call server exposes a
 network-facing agent control API without authentication when `CALL_SERVER_TOKEN` is not configured. The
 affected component is the `praisonai.api.agent_invoke` router as mounted by `praisonai.api.call`. The
 authentication helper `verify_token()` fails open when `CALL_SERVER_TOKEN` is unset. Since every sensitive
 agent-control endpoint depends on this helper, starting the call server without a token allows any
 reachable client to list agents, inspect agent metadata and instructions, invoke agents, and unregister
 agents. This is security-relevant because the bundled call server includes the vulnerable router and binds
 to `0.0.0.0`. As a result, operators who launch the call server without explicitly setting
 `CALL_SERVER_TOKEN` may unintentionally expose an unauthenticated remote agent control plane. Version
 4.6.40 fixes the issue. (CVE-2026-47396)

Solution

Update the PraisonAI library and its related packages to version 4.6.40 or later.
