AI-suggested

Upgrade PraisonAI to version 4.6.59 or later, where this path traversal vulnerability has been fixed. The patch enforces proper validation of artifact paths to ensure they reside within the configured artifact base directory and are created by the configured store. Until upgrading, restrict access to the Dynamic Context Discovery feature and limit who can supply artifact tool arguments to trusted users only.

Description

PraisonAI versions from 3.8.1 up to but not including 4.6.59 contain a path traversal vulnerability in the Dynamic Context Discovery feature. This flaw allows unauthorized reading of arbitrary files on the host filesystem by manipulating artifact tool arguments. The vulnerability arises because the artifact tools do not verify that the supplied paths are within the configured artifact base directory or created by the configured store. This can expose sensitive files such as .env files, cloud credentials, SSH keys, and source code. The issue is fixed in version 4.6.59.
