EPSS · scored 2026-10-27

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.22 contain an allowlist bypass vulnerability in the safeBins configuration that allows attackers to invoke external helpers through the compress-program option. When sort is explicitly added to tools.exec.safeBins, remote attackers can bypass intended safe-bin approval constraints by leveraging the compress-program parameter to execute unauthorized external programs.

Vendor and ecosystem advisories describing this.

  • WID-SEC-W-2026-0472OpenClaw: Mehrere SchwachstellenDeutsch2026-02-22csaf · cert_bundDE

    Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in OpenClaw ausnutzen, um beliebigen Programmcode auszuführen, sich erhöhte Berechtigungen zu verschaffen, Daten zu manipulieren, einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand auszulösen, Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen, vertrauliche Informationen offenzulegen oder andere nicht näher spezifizierte Angriffe durchzuführen.

  • GHSA-vmqr-rc7x-3446OpenClaw's non-default safeBins sort configuration can bypass intended allowlist approval constraints2026-03-03ghsa · osvUS

    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: `<=2026.2.21-2` - Latest published npm version checked during triage: `2026.2.21-2` (as of February 22, 2026) - Patched in planned next release: `2026.2.22` ## Fix Commit(s) - `57fbbaebca4d34d17549accf6092ae26eb7b605c` ## Release Process Note `patched_versions` is pre-set to the planned next release (`>=2026.2.22`). Once that npm release is published, the advisory can be published directly. OpenClaw thanks @tdjackey for reporting.
