- 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-rxxp-482v-7mrhOpenClaw's inbound media downloads could exceed configured byte limits before rejection across multiple channels2026-03-02ghsa · osvUS
## Summary OpenClaw did not consistently enforce configured inbound media byte limits before buffering remote media in several channel ingestion paths. A remote sender could trigger oversized downloads and memory pressure before rejection. ## Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Affected versions: `<= 2026.2.21-2` (latest published at triage time) - Fixed in: `2026.2.22` (planned next release) ## Impact An attacker could cause elevated memory usage and potential process instability (denial of service) by sending oversized media payloads. ## Fix Commit(s) - `73d93dee64127a26f1acd09d0403b794cdeb4f5c` ## Release Process Note `patched_versions` is pre-set to the planned next release (`2026.2.22`). After that npm release is published, this advisory can be published without further version-field edits. OpenClaw thanks @tdjackey for reporting.
