Published by the GitHub Advisory Database at 10 Apr 2026, 19:22 UTC. agentprime has not analysed this yet, so whether it affects any app is not known.

## Affected packages

- `praisonai` (PyPI): affected `<4.5.128`; fixed in `4.5.128`

## Machine-written summary

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

> PraisonAI versions before 4.5.128 are vulnerable. In the deploy.py script, the values for the OpenAI model, API key and base URL are joined into one comma-separated gcloud --set-env-vars argument without checking for commas. An attacker who can influence one of these values, such as through a dotenv file, CI secret or local shell access, can inject extra environment variables into the deployed Cloud Run service, including overriding the API key. Upgrade to PraisonAI 4.5.128 or later, which contains 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-fvxx-ggmx-3cjg>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
