Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to 4.5.115, the A2U (Agent-to-User) event stream server in PraisonAI exposes all agent activity without authentication. The create_a2u_routes() function registers the following endpoints with NO authentication checks: /a2u/info, /a2u/subscribe, /a2u/events/{stream_name}, /a2u/events/sub/{id}, and /a2u/health. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.5.115.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

PraisonAI's A2U (Agent-to-User) event stream server has a missing authentication vulnerability. The create_a2u_routes() function registers five endpoints (/a2u/info, /a2u/subscribe, /a2u/events/{stream_name}, /a2u/events/sub/{id}, and /a2u/health) without any authentication checks, allowing unauthenticated attackers to access all agent activity and event streams.

MitigationUpgrade PraisonAI to version 4.5.115 or later, which implements authentication on the A2U endpoints. If immediate patching is not feasible, restrict network access to these endpoints via firewall rules or a reverse proxy with authentication.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check installed PraisonAI version
    Run 'pip show praisonai' or check your package manager to determine the installed version of praisonai
    Affected if Installed version is 4.5.114 or lower
  2. Verify A2U endpoints are exposed
    Attempt to access the following endpoints without authentication: /a2u/info, /a2u/subscribe, /a2u/events/{stream_name}, /a2u/events/sub/{id}, /a2u/health. Use curl or a browser to send unauthenticated requests to these routes.
    Affected if Any of these endpoints respond successfully without requiring authentication credentials
  3. Check if authentication middleware exists on A2U routes
    Inspect the source code of create_a2u_routes() function in the PraisonAI installation directory. Look for authentication decorators, middleware, or validation logic applied to these endpoints.
    Affected if No authentication checks are present in the code for the A2U endpoints
  4. Inspect network accessibility of A2U service
    Determine if the A2U server is listening on a network-accessible interface (0.0.0.0) rather than localhost only. Check configuration files or running service bindings.
    Affected if The A2U endpoints are reachable from non-localhost network addresses without authentication

A user is affected if their PraisonAI installation is version 4.5.114 or lower AND the A2U endpoints are accessible without authentication credentials.

dbcve · scoped
Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 4.5.114
Interim mitigation

Upgrade PraisonAI to version 4.5.115 or later, which implements authentication on the A2U endpoints. If immediate patching is not feasible, restrict network access to these endpoints via firewall rules or a reverse proxy with authentication.

Recommended fix High confidence

4.5.115
