AI-suggested
Upgrade PraisonAI to version 1.5.113 or later, where this path traversal vulnerability is fixed. Patch status is not explicitly stated as 'official-fix' in the vendor advisory, but the description confirms the issue is resolved in 1.5.113. No other mitigation or temporary workaround is indicated.
Description
PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to 1.5.113, _validate_path() calls os.path.normpath() first, which collapses .. sequences, then checks for '..' in normalized. Since .. is already collapsed, the check always passes. This makes the check completely useless and allows trivial path traversal to any file on the system. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.5.113.
