Description
CVE-2026-56840 is a high-severity cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in MervinPraison's PraisonAI multi-agent teams system. Versions from 4.5.2 up to but not including 4.6.59 are affected. The vulnerability occurs because the HTTPApproval component renders attacker-controlled input directly into the approval dashboard HTML without proper neutralization. This allows an attacker to inject JavaScript that executes in the context of the dashboard, potentially approving malicious tool requests automatically. The issue has been patched in version 4.6.59.
