PraisonAI before 1.5.128 caches tool approval decisions by tool name only, not by invocation arguments, allowing subsequent execute_command calls to bypass approval prompts. Attackers can exploit this by obtaining initial approval for a benign command, then silently exfiltrate API keys and credentials via subsequent shell commands without user consent.

GHSA-ffp3-3562-8cv3 — PraisonAI: Coarse-Grained Tool Approval Cache Bypasses Per-Invocation Consent for Shell Commands

Affected: PyPI: praisonaiagents

## Summary

The approval system in PraisonAI Agents caches tool approval decisions by tool name only, not by invocation arguments. Once a user approves `execute_command` for any command (e.g., `ls -la`), all subsequent `execute_command` calls in that execution context bypass the approval prompt entirely. Combined with `os.environ.copy()` passing all process environment variables to subprocesses, this allows an LLM agent (potentially via prompt injection) to silently exfiltrate API keys and credentials without further user consent.

## Details

The `require_approval` decorator in `src/praisonai-agents/praisonaiagents/approval/__init__.py:176-178` checks approval status by tool name only:

```python @wraps(func) def wrapper(*args, **kwargs): if is_already_approved(tool_name): # line 177 — checks only tool_name return func(*args, **kwargs) # line 178 — bypasses ALL approval ```

The `mark_approved` function in `registry.py:144-147` stores only the tool name string:

```python def mark_approved(self, tool_name: str) -> None: approved = self._approved_context.get(set()) approved.add(tool_name) # stores "execute_command", not args self._approved_context.set(approved) ```

The approval context is never cleared during agent execution — `clear_approved()` exists (`registry.py:152`) but is never called in the agent's tool execution path (`agent/tool_execution.py`).

Meanwhile, the `ConsoleBackend` UI at `backends.py:95-96` misleads the user:…
