CVE-2026-57146: CWE-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor in MervinPraison PraisonAI
Description
PraisonAI versions from 4.5.115 up to but not including 4.6.61 have a vulnerability where unauthenticated access to A2U event streaming routes is possible when using the documented CLI entrypoint. This occurs because the CLI wrapper does not enforce API key authentication, allowing exposure of sensitive information without authorization. The issue is fixed in version 4.6.61.

Technical Analysis
PraisonAI, a multi-agent teams system, has an exposure of sensitive information vulnerability (CWE-200) due to unauthenticated access to A2U event streaming routes. Although version 4.5.115 addressed unauthenticated A2U event streaming, the current CLI entrypoint still exposes these routes without authentication because it calls create_a2u_routes(app) directly without setting the A2U_AUTH_TOKEN environment variable or enforcing API key middleware. The authentication helper disables auth if the token is missing, resulting in unauthorized access. This vulnerability is patched in version 4.6.61.
Potential Impact
An unauthenticated attacker can access A2U event streaming routes and subscribe to events without authorization, leading to exposure of sensitive information. The vulnerability does not allow modification or denial of service but compromises confidentiality.
Mitigation Recommendations
Upgrade to PraisonAI version 4.6.61 or later, where the issue is patched. The vendor advisory confirms the fix in 4.6.61. Until then, avoid using the vulnerable CLI entrypoint or ensure the A2U_AUTH_TOKEN environment variable is set to enforce authentication.
