## Overview

### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-fj8f-m44g-c479. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
PraisonAI versions before 4.6.78 contain a prompt injection defense misconfiguration where the block threshold defaults to CRITICAL severity, allowing HIGH-level threats to pass through unblocked. Attackers can submit single-vector prompt injection attacks such as instruction overrides or financial manipulation that trigger HIGH severity detection but are logged without blocking, enabling system prompt extraction and unauthorized tool invocations.

## Affected packages

- `praisonai <= 4.6.77`

## Remediation

Refer to the advisory for the patched release.
