Description

Summary Setting `PRAISONAI_CALL_AUTH=disabled` completely disables all authentication on the `/api/v1/agents/{id}/invoke` endpoint. This bypass is advertised in the application's own error messages, making it likely to appear in production Docker and Compose configurations. Details ```python src/praisonai/praisonai/api/agent_invoke.py:32 _CALL_AUTH_DISABLED = os.getenv('PRAISONAI_CALL_AUTH', '').lower() == 'disabled' async def verify_token(...) -> None: if _CALL_AUTH_DISABLED: return # all authentication skipped unconditionally ``` The application's own error message advertises the bypass: > "Set CALL_SERVER_TOKEN or PRAISONAI_CALL_AUTH=disabled to run without authentication." This causes the setting to appear in Docker/Compose configurations as a convenience option. Proof of Concept ```python import os os.environ["PRAISONAI_CALL_AUTH"] = "disabled" verify_token() now returns immediately for any request POST /api/v1/agents/any-agent/invoke → 200 OK (no token needed) ``` Common vulnerable deployment: ```yaml docker-compose.yml environment: • PRAISONAI_CALL_AUTH=disabled # auth completely disabled ``` Impact Full unauthenticated access to the agent invocation API. Any agent registered on the server can be triggered without credentials, potentially executing arbitrary actions depending on the agent's configured tools.
