EPSS · scored 2026-10-27

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.19 contain an allowlist bypass vulnerability in the exec safeBins policy that allows attackers to write arbitrary files using short-option payloads. Attackers can bypass argument validation by attaching short options like -o to whitelisted binaries, enabling unauthorized file-write operations that should be denied by safeBins checks.

  • 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.

    ### Summary OpenClaw `exec` allowlist/safeBins policy could be bypassed with attached short-option payloads (for example `sort -o/tmp/poc`), enabling file-write operations while still satisfying safeBins checks. ### Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Affected versions: `<= 2026.2.17` - Latest published vulnerable version: `2026.2.17` - Patched in: `2026.2.19` ### Impact When `tools.exec.security=allowlist` and `tools.exec.safeBins` included affected binaries, attached short-option payloads could bypass safeBins argument validation and permit file-write behavior that should have been denied. ### Fix Commit(s) - cfe8457a0f4aae5324daec261d3b0aad1461a4bc - bafdbb6f112409a65decd3d4e7350fbd637c7754 - fec48a5006eab37c6a5821726ccaeec886486b13 OpenClaw thanks @FailButWin and @Redgrave961 for reporting.
