Detailsinfo
A vulnerability was found in MervinPraison PraisonAI up to 4.5.114. It has been declared as critical. This vulnerability affects the function create_agent_centric_tools of the component File Content Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a code injection vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-94.

As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:
PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to 4.5.115, the create_agent_centric_tools() function returns tools (like acp_create_file) that process file content using template rendering. When user input from agent.start() is passed directly into these tools without escaping, template expressions in the input are executed rather than treated as literal text. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.5.115.
