Technical details
The PraisonAI Platform API suffers from two primary authorization failures. First, the service layer for 'issues' and 'projects' (e.g., issue_service.py) performs global database lookups using primary keys without verifying workspace ownership, enabling cross-workspace IDOR. An attacker can read, update, or delete resources in any workspace by manipulating UUIDs in API requests. Second, member management endpoints in workspaces.py only require a 'member' role for access and lack server-side checks for role hierarchy or self-promotion. This allows any workspace member to escalate their privileges to 'owner' and remove other members, including the original creator. These issues are addressed in version 0.1.4.
