# Description: The CodeAgent._execute_python() in PraisonAI executes LLM-generated code without sandboxing, AST validation, or import restrictions. This allows full environment secret exfiltration and arbitrary code execution via prompt injection.
# Fixed in: praisonaiagents >= 1.6.78
# Usage:
# python3 exploit.py
#
# Examples:
# python3 exploit.py
#
# Options:
# --
#
# Notes:
# • Requires the vulnerable praisonaiagents package installed.
# • Demonstrates direct RCE and secret leakage.
#
# How to Use
#
# Step 1:
# pip install praisonaiagents==1.6.77
#
# Step 2:
# python3 exploit.py
