CVE-2026-60088
MEDIUM 6.8 PoC AVAILABLEPraisonAI before 4.6.78 fails to validate file path references in custom command templates, allowing attackers to read files outside the workspace. Attackers can include path traversal sequences like @../outside_secret.txt or absolute paths in project command files to exfiltrate process-readable files into model prompts.
Public exploit or PoC code exists. Modeled probability is still low, but the barrier to attack is reduced — watch closely.
