CVE-2026-47413 MervinPraison CVE debrief
CVE-2026-47413 is a critical vulnerability in PraisonAI Platform versions prior to 0.1.4, allowing for privilege escalation and cross-tenant member injection. The vulnerability exists in the `POST /workspaces/{workspace_id}/members` endpoint, which is gated only by `require_workspace_member(workspace_id)` and forwards the request body's `user_id` and `role` straight into `MemberService.add(workspace_id, user_id, role)`, without any caller-permission check. This allows a user with the lowest workspace privilege to add any user, including a new attacker-controlled account or an existing account they want to grief, as the owner of the workspace. The CVE record was published on 2026-07-21T18:17:00.133Z and has not been modified since then. The NVD entry is currently Deferred.

Who should care
Users of PraisonAI Platform versions prior to 0.1.4 should be aware of this critical vulnerability and take immediate action to patch their systems. This vulnerability has a CVSS score of 9.6 and is considered critical. Operators, platform administrators, vulnerability management teams, and security teams should review the affected scope and severity with the vendor and plan vendor-supported updates or mitigations through normal change control where exposure is confirmed.
Technical summary
The vulnerability exists in the `POST /workspaces/{workspace_id}/members` endpoint of PraisonAI Platform. The endpoint is gated only by `require_workspace_member(workspace_id)` (default `min_role='member'`) and forwards the request body's `user_id` and `role` straight into `MemberService.add(workspace_id, user_id, role)`, which has no caller-permission check. This allows for privilege escalation and cross-tenant member injection. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 9.6 and is considered critical.
Defensive priority
High
Recommended defensive actions
- Patch PraisonAI Platform to version 0.1.4 or later
- Restrict access to the `POST /workspaces/{workspace_id}/members` endpoint
- Monitor for suspicious activity on the PraisonAI Platform
- Implement additional security measures to prevent privilege escalation and cross-tenant member injection
- Review compensating controls for exposed systems while remediation is scheduled and verified
- Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review
- Track exceptions, retest remediated assets, and close the item only after evidence is documented
