CVE-2026-61442: PraisonAI: Platform member PATCH routes allow owner resource rewrites and project lead reassignment delete bypass
praisonai-platform lets an ordinary workspace member patch owner-created project, issue, and agent records even though the paired delete routes enforce owner/admin authorization. For projects, the member can first patch lead_id to their own user id and then delete the owner-created project, bypassing a delete guard that correctly returned 403 before the reassignment.
