AI-suggested
Upgrade PraisonAI to version 1.7.2 or later, where the initial remediation addressing this missing authentication vulnerability has been implemented. Until upgraded, restrict network access to the affected server port to trusted clients only.
Description
PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. From 1.5.0 until 1.7.2, MCPServer.startHttp() in src/praisonai-ts/src/mcp/server.ts binds without a host restriction and forwards every HTTP POST request to handleRequest() without authentication or authorization. Any network client that can reach the port can call tools/list, tools/call, resources/read, or prompts/get, causing registered handlers to run with server-side credentials and process privileges or disclose registered data. An initial remediation was released in version 1.7.2.
