CVE-2026-47409: praisonai-platform: Missing authorization on member removal enables full workspace takeover by any user regardless of role
Type: Authorization bypass enabling owner lockout. The DELETE /workspaces/{workspace_id}/members/{user_id} endpoint is gated only by require_workspace_member(workspace_id) (default min_role="member"). Any member can remove any other member, including the workspace owner, using a single DELETE. There is no caller-role check, no target-role check, no “cannot remove last owner” guard.
File: src/praisonai-platform/praisonai_platform/api/routes/workspaces.py, lines 130-140; services/member_service.py, lines 71-78.
Root cause: MemberService.remove(workspace_id, user_id) performs the deletion without any caller-permission check or owner-protection logic. The route accepts the URL-supplied user_id and dispatches it straight through. The role hierarchy (MemberService.has_role) is implemented but never invoked here. A member-tier attacker can issue DELETE .../members/<owner_user_id> and immediately lock the legitimate owner out of the workspace.
