CVE-2026-57134
Basic and OAuth policies accept any non-empty Authorization header without calling auth.validate(), then return an authenticated result, allowing callers with invalid credentials to access MCP tools and resources protected by those policies.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.41%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. From 1.5.1 until 1.7.2, MCPSecurity.evaluatePolicy() in src/praisonai-ts/src/mcp/security.ts invokes the configured credential validator only when AuthMethod is api-key or bearer. Basic and OAuth policies accept any non-empty Authorization header without calling auth.validate(), then return an authenticated result, allowing callers with invalid credentials to access MCP tools and resources protected by those policies. This issue is fixed in version 1.7.2.
