CVE-2026-41497 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to version 4.6.9, the fix for PraisonAI's MCP command handling does not add a command allowlist or argument validation to parse_mcp_command(), allowing arbitrary executables like bash, python, or /bin/sh with inline code execution flags to pass through to subprocess execution. EPSS estimates a 0.54% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
