Duplicate Advisory: PraisonAI: Plugin Auto-Discovery Executes Arbitrary Python Files Without Verification

Severity: high · CVSS 8.4 · Published 2026-07-15

### Duplicate Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-m6wp-h223-4c8g. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description 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 spec_from_file_location() and exec_module() 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.

Technologies: praisonaiagents (PyPI). Vendors: PyPI.
