CVE-2026-40152
CWE-22Published: April 9, 2026· Updated: Apr 13, 2026
Official Description
PraisonAIAgents is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to 1.5.128, he list_files() tool in FileTools validates the directory parameter against workspace boundaries via _validate_path(), but passes the pattern parameter directly to Path.glob() without any validation. Since Python's Path.glob() supports .. path segments, an attacker can use relative path traversal in the glob pattern to enumerate arbitrary files outside the workspace, obtaining file metadata (existence, name, size, timestamps) for any path on the filesystem. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.5.128.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-40152 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.
A proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit exists for CVE-2026-40152. While not yet confirmed in active campaigns, the availability of PoC code increases exploitation risk substantially.
