Description

PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to 4.5.133, there is an SQL identifier injection vulnerability in SQLiteConversationStore where the table_prefix configuration value is directly concatenated into SQL queries via f-strings without any validation or sanitization. Since SQL identifiers cannot be safely parameterized, an attacker who controls the table_prefix value (e.g., through from_yaml or from_dict configuration input) can inject arbitrary SQL fragments that alter query structure. This enables unauthorized data access, such as reading internal SQLite tables like sqlite_master, and manipulation of query results through techniques like UNION-based injection. The vulnerability propagates from configuration input in config.py, through factory.py, to the SQL query construction in sqlite.py. Exploitation requires the ability to influence configuration input, and successful exploitation leads to internal schema disclosure and full query result tampering. This issue has been fixed in version 4.5.133.

⚠ For Security Research Only
The following code is for security research and authorized testing only.
python
# PoC demonstrates SQL Identifier Injection via table_prefix configuration # Attacker crafts a malicious YAML to inject SQL fragments import yaml malicious_yaml = """ table_prefix: "messages UNION SELECT 1, sql, 1, 1 FROM sqlite_master--" """ config = yaml.safe_load(malicious_yaml) prefix = config['table_prefix'] # Simulated vulnerable code in sqlite.py # query = f"SELECT * FROM {prefix} WHERE user_id = ?" # Resulting Query: # SELECT * FROM messages UNION SELECT 1, sql, 1, 1 FROM sqlite_master-- WHERE user_id = ? # This allows dumping the database schema (sqlite_master table). print(f"Injected table_prefix value: {prefix}")
