CVE-2026-57141Public exploitNetwork attack vectorHinoki check available

Host code execution via codeMode sandbox escape

Published Sep 15, 2026 · Updated Sep 15, 2026

Code injection in PraisonAI before 1.7.2 allows remote attackers to execute operating-system commands through crafted codeMode input. The codeMode implementation in src/praisonai-ts/src/tools/builtins/code-mode.ts passes the input to new Function inside with(sandbox), while its regular-expression blocklist misses a reconstructed global.require call. Any deployment with codeMode enabled for agents accepts model-influenced code that can read or write process-accessible files and obtain environment credentials with the PraisonAI process privileges.
