OpenClaw has an unspecified vulnerability (CNVD-2026-13371)

OpenClaw is an intelligent artificial assistant open-sourced by OpenClaw. OpenClaw suffers from a security vulnerability, which stems from tools.exec.safeBins authentication can be bypassed and can be exploited by an attacker to cause unapproved code execution...

OpenClaw has Windows Lobster shell fallback command injection in constrained fallback path

Summary On Windows, the Lobster extension previously retried certain spawn failures ENOENT/EINVAL with shell: true for wrapper compatibility. In that fallback path, tool-provided arguments could be interpreted by cmd.exe if fallback was triggered. Affected Packages / Versions - Package: openclaw...

OpenClaw's tools.exec.safeBins generic fallback allowed interpreter-style inline payload execution in allowlist mode

Summary When tools.exec.safeBins contained a binary without an explicit safe-bin profile, OpenClaw used a permissive generic fallback profile. In allowlist mode, that could let interpreter-style binaries for example python3, node, ruby execute inline payloads via flags like -c. This requires...

GHSA-8MF7-VV8W-HJR2 OpenClaw's tools.exec.safeBins generic fallback allowed interpreter-style inline payload execution in allowlist mode

Summary When tools.exec.safeBins contained a binary without an explicit safe-bin profile, OpenClaw used a permissive generic fallback profile. In allowlist mode, that could let interpreter-style binaries for example python3, node, ruby execute inline payloads via flags like -c. This requires...

Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs

Overview openclaw is a 🦞 OpenClaw — Personal AI Assistant Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs via the --compress-program flag in the sort process when sort is manually added to the tools.exec.safeBins configuration. An attacker can execute...

In OpenClaw, manually adding sort to tools.exec.safeBins could bypass allowlist approval via --compress-program

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...

GHSA-4GC7-QCVF-38WG In OpenClaw, manually adding sort to tools.exec.safeBins could bypass allowlist approval via --compress-program

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...

OpenClaw has exec allowlist/safeBins policy-runtime mismatch via env -S wrapper interpretation

Summary tools.exec allowlist/safe-bins evaluation could diverge from runtime execution for wrapper commands using GNU env -S/--split-string semantics. This allowed policy checks to treat a command as a benign safe-bin invocation while runtime executed a different payload. Affected Packages /...

GHSA-796M-2973-WC5Q OpenClaw has exec allowlist/safeBins policy-runtime mismatch via env -S wrapper interpretation

Summary tools.exec allowlist/safe-bins evaluation could diverge from runtime execution for wrapper commands using GNU env -S/--split-string semantics. This allowed policy checks to treat a command as a benign safe-bin invocation while runtime executed a different payload. Affected Packages /...

OpenClaw's `tools.exec.safeBins` PATH-hijack allowed trojan binaries to bypass allowlist checks

Summary tools.exec.safeBins allowlist checks could be bypassed by PATH-hijacked binaries, allowing execution of attacker-controlled trojan binaries under an allowlisted executable name. Affected Packages / Versions - Package: openclaw npm - Latest published version at triage time: 2026.2.17 -...

GHSA-3C6H-G97W-FG78 OpenClaw's tools.exec.safeBins sort long-option abbreviation bypass can skip exec approval in allowlist mode

Summary In OpenClaw, tools.exec.safeBins validation for sort could be bypassed via GNU long-option abbreviations in allowlist mode, allowing approval-free execution paths that should require approval. Affected Packages / Versions - Ecosystem: npm - Package: openclaw - Latest published version...

OpenClaw: safeBins static default trusted dirs allow writable-dir binary hijack (`jq`)

Summary In openclaw= 2026.2.24 planned next npm release - Latest published npm version at triage time 2026-02-24: 2026.2.23 Root Cause - Default safe-bin trusted directories included package-manager/user-managed paths. - Trust decision was directory-membership only for resolved executable paths...

GHSA-5GJ7-JF77-Q2Q2 OpenClaw: safeBins static default trusted dirs allow writable-dir binary hijack (`jq`)

Summary In openclaw= 2026.2.24 planned next npm release - Latest published npm version at triage time 2026-02-24: 2026.2.23 Root Cause - Default safe-bin trusted directories included package-manager/user-managed paths. - Trust decision was directory-membership only for resolved executable paths...

GHSA-QHRR-GRQP-6X2G OpenClaw's tools.exec.safeBins trusted PATH directories allowed binary shadowing in allowlist mode

Summary In openclaw allowlist mode, tools.exec.safeBins trusted PATH-derived directories for safe-bin resolution. A same-name binary placed in a trusted PATH directory could satisfy safe-bin checks and execute. Impact This is an allowlist bypass in exec policy that can lead to command execution i...

GHSA-3XFW-4PMR-4XC5 OpenClaw safeBins grep -e File Read Bypass (stdin-only policy bypass)

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 /...

GHSA-VMQR-RC7X-3446 OpenClaw's non-default safeBins sort configuration can bypass intended allowlist approval constraints

When sort is explicitly added to tools.exec.safeBins non-default, the --compress-program option can invoke an external helper and bypass the intended safe-bin approval constraints in allowlist mode. Affected Packages / Versions - Package: openclaw npm - Vulnerable versions: =2026.2.22. Once that...
