CVE-2026-57125Public exploitNetwork attack vectorHinoki check available

Unauthenticated RCE via Jobs API approval bypass

Published Sep 14, 2026 · Updated Sep 14, 2026

Remote code execution in Mervin Praison's PraisonAI before 4.6.59 and praisonaiagents before 1.6.59 allows remote attackers to run OS commands. The unauthenticated POST /api/v1/runs route accepts agent_yaml whose approve list marks execute_command as YAML-approved before the critical-tool approval decorator runs. A reachable Jobs API and a configured instruction-following model are required; no credentials, session, or operator interaction is needed.
