Summary

CVE-2026-61447 is a critical-severity Code Injection (CWE-94) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 10.0 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 49% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

This vulnerability is AI-related — categorised as LLM Application Platforms; in the LLM/Generative AI Risks risk domain.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SC-39 (Process Isolation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

PraisonAI before 1.6.78 contains a remote code execution vulnerability in CodeAgent._execute_python() that executes LLM-generated Python code without AST validation, import restrictions, or sandbox enforcement. Attackers can influence LLM output through prompt injection to exfiltrate all environment secrets and execute arbitrary…

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
T1059.006 Python Execution
Adversaries may abuse Python commands and scripts for execution.
Why these techniques?

Direct RCE via unsandboxed Python execution (CWE-94) enables T1190 for remote exploitation and T1059.006 for arbitrary Python code execution.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Directly requires validation of untrusted input (LLM-generated Python code) before execution, addressing the missing AST validation and import restrictions.

prevent

Enforces process isolation to sandbox execution of generated code, preventing host-level arbitrary code execution and secret exfiltration.

preventdetect

Provides malicious code detection and blocking mechanisms that can intercept unsafe LLM-generated Python payloads before or during execution.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

PR.PS-06's SDLC practices directly target injection flaws via secure coding and testing (mostly), yet as a single broad outcome it leaves many code-generation specifics unaddressed (partial).

PR.DS-10 none match
prevents

PR.DS-10 protects runtime data confidentiality/integrity but has no bearing on neutralizing externally influenced input during code generation, so neither direction shows any preventive effect.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

prevents

Banning unapproved code samples and unauthenticated web services, combined with secure-coding standards and SAST, prevents the dynamic generation or inclusion of attacker-supplied code.

none

Controls that restrict unauthorized or malicious code from being introduced via external networks or removable media limit opportunities for an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary code.
