CVE-2026-61430
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 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the web_crawl tool that validates hostnames at check time but re-resolves them at connection time without IP pinning. Attackers can use DNS rebinding to bypass SSRF protection and retrieve internal HTTP response bodies from private or loopback services.
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 confidencePraisonAI before 1.6.78 has an SSRF vulnerability in its web_crawl tool where hostname validation occurs at check time but DNS resolution happens again at connection time without IP pinning. Attackers exploit this via DNS rebinding to bypass the initial validation, causing the server to connect to internal/private IP addresses (e.g., 127.0.0.1, 192.168.x.x) and exfiltrate sensitive HTTP response bodies.

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 if PraisonAI is installedCheck for PraisonAI package installation via package manager or pip list, or locate the application directoryAffected if PraisonAI is present on the system
-
Determine installed PraisonAI versionRun 'pip show praisonai' or check the package version in your Python environment, then compare to 1.6.78Affected if Version is below 1.6.78 (e.g., 1.6.77 or earlier)
-
Check if web_crawl tool is accessible or configuredExamine the PraisonAI configuration or codebase for web_crawl tool definitions and any web scraping/crawling functionalityAffected if web_crawl tool is enabled or available for use
-
Inspect hostname validation logic in web_crawlReview the source code of the web_crawl implementation for DNS rebinding protection - look for whether IP pinning is implemented at connection timeAffected if No IP pinning is found; hostname is resolved separately at validation time and connection time without binding to the initially resolved IP
-
Test for SSRF susceptibility via DNS rebindingIf you have access to a test environment, configure the web_crawl tool with a controlled DNS name that resolves to internal IPs (127.0.0.1 or private range) and observe if connections succeedAffected if The tool successfully connects to internal/private IP addresses after initial hostname validation
You are affected if PraisonAI is installed with a version before 1.6.78 and the web_crawl tool is accessible, as the lack of IP pinning allows DNS rebinding to internal services.

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 · scopedUpgrade to PraisonAI 1.6.78 or later. Alternatively, implement IP pinning by resolving the hostname to an IP at validation time and using that exact IP for the connection, preventing DNS rebinding attacks.
1.6.78
- Upgrade PraisonAI to version 1.6.78 or later to address the SSRF vulnerability in the web_crawl tool
- Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the installed version
- If upgrading is not immediately possible, consider disabling or restricting the web_crawl tool to trusted sources only
