AI-suggested
Upgrade PraisonAI to version 4.5.128 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. The fix includes authentication and Twilio signature validation on the /media-stream WebSocket endpoint and implements limits on concurrent connections, message rate, and message size to prevent resource exhaustion. No other mitigation is indicated.
Description
PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to 4.5.128, the /media-stream WebSocket endpoint in PraisonAI's call module accepts connections from any client without authentication or Twilio signature validation. Each connection opens an authenticated session to OpenAI's Realtime API using the server's API key. There are no limits on concurrent connections, message rate, or message size, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to exhaust server resources and drain the victim's OpenAI API credits. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.5.128.
