CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

The vulnerability affects PraisonAI versions 1.4.0 to 1.7.2, where the codeMode component improperly executes untrusted JavaScript, allowing attackers to bypass the sandbox and access the host filesystem and subprocess APIs. This critical flaw enables unauthorized code execution, file modification, and potential exposure of sensitive information. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize immediate updates to version 1.7.2 to mitigate the risk of exploitation.

Original NVD Description

PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. From 1.4.0 until 1.7.2, codeMode in src/praisonai-ts/src/tools/builtins/code-mode.ts executes untrusted JavaScript with new Function() inside with(sandbox) and relies on a small source-code blocklist plus shadowed process and require properties. Code can use ({}).constructor.constructor to recover the real Function constructor, obtain process and process.mainModule.require, and reach host filesystem and subprocess APIs despite the advertised sandbox. Attackers who control codeMode input can read secrets, modify files, execute commands, or exhaust the host process. This issue is fixed in version 1.7.2.
