Overview openclaw is a 🦞 OpenClaw — Personal AI Assistant Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization via the system.run approvals. An attacker can cause execution of an unintended binary by crafting a command with a trailing-space in the executable token and...

OpenClaw: system.run approval identity mismatch could execute a different binary than displayed

Summary system.run approvals in OpenClaw used rendered command text as the approval identity while trimming argv token whitespace. Runtime execution still used raw argv. A crafted trailing-space executable token could therefore execute a different binary than what the approver saw. Affected...
