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.
