SCA: security update for praisonai (GHSA-hc5v-gxvj-58wh)
medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 473953
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- 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). (CVE-2026-61427)
Solution
Update the praisonai library and its related packages to version 4.6.78 or later.See Also
