Signing secret is public in source so PR:N is genuine, not overstated; remote API token forgery (AV:N/AC:L/UI:N) yields full identity takeover (C:H/I:H/A:H).

CRITICAL 9.8

DescriptionCVE.org

PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to 0.1.6, praisonai_platform/services/auth_service.py falls back to the public dev-secret-change-me HS256 signing key when PLATFORM_JWT_SECRET is unset, while the startup and token-issuance guards are disabled because PLATFORM_ENV also defaults to dev. An unauthenticated attacker can sign a JWT containing an attacker-chosen sub value, and AuthService._verify_token() accepts it as an authenticated identity, enabling user or workspace-owner impersonation when a target identifier is known. This vulnerability is fixed in praisonai-platform 0.1.6.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated authentication bypass in praisonai-platform prior to 0.1.6 (and PraisonAI before 4.6.51) allows a remote attacker to forge HS256 session JWTs using the publicly known default signing key 'dev-secret-change-me' and be accepted as any identity the attacker names in the token's sub claim, including a workspace owner. The vulnerable state is the shipped default: the documented startup command sets neither PLATFORM_JWT_SECRET (so the hardcoded fallback is used) nor PLATFORM_ENV (which stays at 'dev', leaving the startup and token-issuance guards default-open). …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitable against DEFAULT deployments of praisonai-platform <0.1.6 (and PraisonAI <4.6.51) that do not explicitly export a strong PLATFORM_JWT_SECRET - which the documented startup command (`python -m praisonai_platform --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000` / uvicorn equivalent) does not, so the vulnerable state is the shipped default rather than an edge case. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment All exploitability signals in the CVSS vector align and are genuinely justified: AV:N (JWT verified over the network API), AC:L (mint a token with any JWT library), PR:N and UI:N (no account, no victim interaction). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Vendor-released patch: praisonai-platform 0.1.6 (with PraisonAI 4.6.51 for the umbrella package) - upgrade immediately, since 0.1.4 is not a fix despite GHSA-3qg8-5g3r-79v5 previously claiming otherwise; consult https://github.com/MervinPraison/PraisonAI/security/advisories/GHSA-f38v-77qj-h4jq and the release notes at https://github.com/MervinPraison/PraisonAI/releases/tag/v4.6.51 for the exact artifacts. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory every deployment of praisonai-platform and PraisonAI, identify those running versions prior to 0.1.6 and 4.6.51 respectively, and upgrade to praisonai-platform 0.1.6 / PraisonAI 4.6.51; where an upgrade cannot be completed immediately, set PLATFORM_JWT_SECRET to a strong randomly generated value, set PLATFORM_ENV to a non-development value so the default-open startup and token-issuance guards close, invalidate all existing sessions and issued tokens, and preserve authentication logs for review. …
