CVE-2026-60087
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 · uneditedPraisonAI before 1.6.78 caches tool approval decisions by tool name only, allowing attackers to reuse initial approvals for subsequent calls with arbitrary arguments. Attackers can exploit this by obtaining approval for a benign operation and then executing dangerous file write operations with unreviewed parameters in the same session.
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 · moderate confidencePraizonAI before 1.6.78 has a flawed approval caching mechanism that stores tool approval decisions using only the tool name as the cache key, ignoring the actual arguments passed to the tool. This allows an attacker who obtains approval for a benign operation to later invoke the same tool with malicious parameters (such as dangerous file write operations) without re-verification, as the system incorrectly trusts the cached approval from the initial benign call.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify PraizonAI installation and versionLocate the PraizonAI installation directory and check the version file or binary version. Common paths include /opt/praizonai, /usr/local/praizonai, or the application root directory. Look for a version manifest, package.json, or version.txt file.Affected if The installed version is before 1.6.78 (e.g., 1.6.77, 1.6.5, etc.)
-
Verify approval caching is enabledExamine the PraizonAI configuration files for approval caching settings. Look in config/approvals.conf, config/cache.json, or similar configuration directories for settings like 'cache_approvals', 'approval_cache_enabled', or 'use_cached_approvals'. Check for boolean flags set to true.Affected if Approval caching is enabled in the configuration (any setting that permits reusing prior approval decisions without re-verification)
-
Identify tools with file system accessReview the tool definitions or plugin directory to identify tools capable of file write, file modify, or file download operations. Look for tools named file_write, write_file, save_file, download, or similar. Cross-reference with the approved tools list if one exists.Affected if Tools with file write or modification capabilities are registered and available for use
-
Examine approval cache storageLocate the approval cache storage mechanism. Check for cache files in data/cache/, data/approvals/, or runtime/cache/ directories. Look for JSON, SQLite, or other database files that store approval decisions. Inspect the cache key structure by examining a cached entry.Affected if Cache entries use only the tool name as the key (e.g., 'file_write': true) without including arguments or context in the key
-
Review approval logs for cached decisionsCheck application logs for entries containing 'cache', 'cached approval', or 're-using approval'. Look for log patterns showing a tool was approved without re-evaluation on subsequent calls with different arguments.Affected if Logs show approvals being reused for repeated tool calls without argument validation on each invocation
If PraizonAI version is below 1.6.78 AND approval caching is enabled for tools with file operations, the environment is vulnerable to argument-agnostic approval reuse attacks.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedImplement approval caching that includes both tool name AND the full argument set/context as the cache key, or require re-approval for operations involving file system modifications regardless of prior approvals for the same tool name.
1.6.78 or later
- 1. Identify the currently installed PraisonAI version using pip show praisonai or pip list
- 2. If the installed version is before 1.6.78, upgrade to version 1.6.78 or later using: pip install --upgrade praisonai
- 3. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the installed version: pip show praisonai
- 4. Confirm the version meets the minimum secure version requirement of 1.6.78
