## Affected packages

- `praisonaiagents` (PyPI): affected `<1.5.128`; fixed in `1.5.128`

## Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

> The praisonaiagents PyPI package versions before 1.5.128 have a web_crawl tool that fetches any URL an agent supplies without validation, so it accepts file://, cloud metadata, and internal addresses. An attacker who can influence the agent's input, including through prompt injection in crawled web content, can make it reach internal services, read cloud credentials, or read local files when the urllib fallback is active. Upgrade to version 1.5.128 or later, which is listed as the fix.

## Check whether this affects you

A Match means an installed version is in the affected range above. Most don’t affect the app; agentprime hasn’t analysed this one yet.

- With the agentprime MCP server (<https://api.agentprime.io/mcp>), ask your agent to check the project: `check_lockfile` sends a lockfile, `check_packages` a list of installed packages, and both return the Matches and the upgrades that clear them. `get_advisory` returns this record. Setup: <https://agentprime.io/mcp.md>
- In a browser: <https://agentprime.io/check/> reads your lockfile in the browser, never uploading it.
- Whether it touches your code, with file and line: the Claude Code plugin, <https://agentprime.io/plugin.md>
- As JSON: <https://api.agentprime.io/v1/advisories/GHSA-8f4v-xfm9-3244>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
