Rancher's restricted PodSecurityPolicy does not prevent containers from running as a privileged user

Impact The restricted pod security policy PSP, provided in Rancher versions from 2.0 up to and including 2.6.3, has a deviation from the upstream restricted policy provided in Kubernetes, in which Rancher's PSP has runAsUser set to runAsAny, while upstream has runAsUser set to MustRunAsNonRoot...

Missing Authorization

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Missing Authorization due to the restricted pod security policy having runAsUser set to runAsAny, which allows containers to run as any user, including privileged users, even when the policy is enforced. An attacker can escalate...

BIT-DISCOURSE-2026-26207 DIscourse's discourse-policy plugin lacks post access check

Discourse is an open source discussion platform. Prior to versions 2025.12.2, 2026.1.1, and 2026.2.0, discourse-policy plugin allows any authenticated user to interact with policies on posts they do not have permission to view. The PolicyController loads posts by ID without verifying the current...

OpenClaw: macOS optional allowlist basename matching could bypass path-based policy

Summary On macOS node-host, optional exec-approval allowlist mode previously treated basename-only entries for example echo as trusted command matches. This could allow a same-name local binary for example ./echo to run without approval under security=allowlist + ask=on-miss. Scope / Precondition...

Incorrect Authorization

Overview openclaw is a 🦞 OpenClaw — Personal AI Assistant Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization in the exec approval mode on macOS node-hosts when basename-only allowlist entries are configured. An attacker can execute unauthorized local binaries by creating ...

OpenClaw: Node reconnect metadata spoofing could bypass platform-based node command policy

Summary A paired node device could reconnect with spoofed platform/deviceFamily metadata and broaden node command policy eligibility because reconnect metadata was accepted from the client while these fields were not bound into the device-auth signature. Affected Packages / Versions - Package:...

Overview openclaw is a 🦞 OpenClaw — Personal AI Assistant Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization via the paired node device reconnect. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to restricted commands by spoofing the platform or deviceFamily metadata during a...

PT-2026-26403

Summary OpenClaw tools.exec.safeBins had a stdin-only policy bypass for grep. If pattern input was supplied through -e / --regexp, the validator consumed the pattern as a flag value and still allowed one positional operand. That positional could be a bare filename like .env. Affected Packages /...

PT-2026-26392

Summary This issue applies to a non-default configuration only. If sort is manually added to tools.exec.safeBins, OpenClaw could treat sort --compress-program= as valid safe-bin usage. In security=allowlist + ask=on-miss, this could satisfy allowlist checks and skip operator approval, while GNU...

Summary In [email protected], BlueBubbles group authorization could incorrectly treat DM pairing-store identities as group allowlist identities when dmPolicy=pairing and groupPolicy=allowlist. A sender that was only DM-paired not explicitly present in groupAllowFrom could pass group sender check...

OpenClaw: Gateway /tools/invoke tool escalation + ACP permission auto-approval

Summary OpenClaw Gateway exposes an authenticated HTTP endpoint POST /tools/invoke intended for invoking a constrained set of tools. Two issues could combine to significantly increase blast radius in misconfigured or exposed deployments: - The HTTP gateway layer did not deny high-risk session...

OpenClaw has Signal group allowlist authorization bypass via DM pairing-store leakage

Summary In OpenClaw 2026.2.25, Signal group authorization under groupPolicy=allowlist could accept sender identities sourced from DM pairing-store approvals. This allowed DM pairing approvals to leak into group allowlist evaluation. Impact This is an authorization-boundary weakness between DM...

OpenClaw has web_search citation redirect SSRF via private-network-allowing policy

OpenClaw: Unicode canonicalization drift in node metadata policy classification could broaden node allowlists

Summary A paired node could supply Unicode-confusable platform or deviceFamily metadata that passed metadata pinning but classified differently for command policy resolution, broadening default node command allowlists. Impact This is a policy-bypass issue within the paired-node trust boundary and...
