CVE-2026-61446: PraisonAI before 1.6.78 Remote Code Execution via Plugin Auto-Discovery

Published Jul 15, 2026
·
Updated

PraisonAI (praisonaiagents) before 1.6.78 contains a remote code execution vulnerability in the plugin manager, which loads and executes arbitrary Python (.py) files from project-level and user-home .praisonai/plugins/ directories using importlib specfromfilelocation() and execmodule() without code signing, integrity verification, or sandboxing. An attacker who can write a malicious .py file to a plugin directory (for example via path traversal, a supply chain attack, or a compromised dependency) achieves arbitrary code execution when the plugin system initializes.
