Summary
Jovancoding Network-AI from 5.14.0 before 5.15.5 is affected. The A2AServer class lacks authentication for its task operations (CWE-306) when no secret is configured. An unauthenticated remote attacker can execute tasks, read their results and cancel them without a Bearer token.

Description from the CNA
Network-AI from 5.14.0 before 5.15.5 contains a missing authentication vulnerability in the A2AServer class that allows unauthenticated attackers to access task operations when no secret is configured. Attackers can send JSON-RPC requests to tasks/send, tasks/get, and tasks/cancel without a Bearer token to execute tasks, read results, and cancel tasks.
