CVE-2026-44997 OpenClaw < 2026.4.22 - Security Envelope Constraint Bypass in ACP Child Sessions

OpenClaw before 2026.4.22 contains a security envelope constraint bypass vulnerability allowing restricted subagents to spawn ACP child sessions that fail to inherit depth, child-count limits, control scope, or target-agent restrictions. Attackers can exploit this by spawning child sessions that...

OpenClaw: Sandboxed /acp spawn requests could initialize host ACP sessions

Summary Sandboxed requester sessions could reach host-side ACP session initialization through /acp spawn. OpenClaw already blocked sessionsspawn runtime: "acp" from sandboxed sessions, but the slash-command path initialized ACP directly without applying the same host-runtime guard first. Affected...

OpenClaw: Sandboxed sessions_spawn(runtime="acp") bypassed sandbox inheritance and allowed host ACP initialization

Summary Sandboxed sessionsspawnruntime="acp" could bypass sandbox inheritance and initialize host-side ACP runtime. The fix now fail-closes ACP spawn from sandboxed requester sessions and rejects sandbox="require" for runtime="acp". Affected Packages / Versions - Package: openclaw npm - Latest...
