Description

CVE-2026-57133 is an OS command injection vulnerability in MervinPraison's PraisonAI multi-agent teams system. Versions from 1.5.1 up to but not including 1.7.2 are affected. The vulnerability arises because the shell() helper only validates the first whitespace-delimited token against a safe command list but then executes the entire original string, allowing an attacker to append additional commands. This can lead to arbitrary command execution with the privileges of the PraisonAI process. The issue is fixed in version 1.7.2.
