CVE-2026-61426: PraisonAI: AgentOS defaults to network-exposed no-auth mode, allowing unauthenticated agent invocation and instruction disclosure
The AgentOS server in the praisonai TypeScript/npm package ships an insecure default: it binds 0.0.0.0, sets no API key, and uses CORS * with credentials. The API-key middleware is only registered when an API key is configured, so the documented quickstart (new AgentOS({agents:[...]}).serve({port})) exposes, unauthenticated, GET /api/agents (which leaks agent names/roles/instructions, i.e. system prompts) and POST /api/chat (which invokes agents). Any network peer can read agent system prompts and drive the agent. Runtime-confirmed; severity High.
