CVE-2026-57148: praisonai-platform 0.1.4 still boots on the hardcoded JWT secret dev-secret-change-me (default-open production guard)

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 39/100)

The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.64% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 50.8% of all records.
Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
Fixed version: praisonai-platform (PyPI) 0.1.6.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to praisonai-platform (PyPI) 0.1.6 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to 0.1.6, praisonai_platform/services/auth_service.py falls back to the public dev-secret-change-me HS256 signing key when PLATFORM_JWT_SECRET is unset, while the startup and token-issuance guards are disabled because PLATFORM_ENV also defaults to dev. An unauthenticated attacker can sign a JWT containing an attacker-chosen sub value, and AuthService._verify_token() accepts it as an authenticated identity, enabling user or workspace-owner impersonation when a target identifier is known. This vulnerability is fixed in praisonai-platform 0.1.6.

Weakness class (CWE)

CWE-287 · Improper Authentication

CVSS vector

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Root cause

Authentication is added route by route instead of being enforced in one place. When a route added later bypasses the shared middleware, the session check never runs for it.
