EPSS · scored 2026-10-27

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.24 contain a command injection vulnerability in the system.run shell-wrapper that allows attackers to execute hidden commands by injecting positional argv carriers after inline shell payloads. Attackers can craft misleading approval text while executing arbitrary commands through trailing positional arguments that bypass display context validation.

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

    ### Summary In `openclaw` up to and including **2026.2.23** (latest npm release as of **February 25, 2026**), `system.run` shell-wrapper inputs could present misleading approval/display text while still carrying hidden positional argv payloads that execute at runtime. ### Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Affected: `<= 2026.2.23` - Patched: `>= 2026.2.24` (planned next release) ### Root Cause For shell-wrapper forms (for example `/bin/sh -c ...`), command-text binding could focus on inline shell payload text while runtime execution still used the full argv vector. Positional argv carriers after the inline payload could therefore be executed under incomplete display context. ### Security Impact Approval/display context could omit executed argv carriers, enabling hidden command execution under misleading operator-visible text. ### Fix - Detect shell-wrapper inline-command forms that carry trailing positional argv values. - Bind approval/display command text to full formatted argv for those carrier forms. - Reject payload-only `rawCommand` values when they do not match the execution-bound argv context for those forms. - Forward canonical command display text to the macOS companion exec host and validate `rawCommand`/argv consistency there for carrier wrappers and env-modifier shell preludes. ### Verification - `pnpm check` - `pnpm exec vitest run --config vitest.gateway.config.ts` - `pnpm test:fast` - `pnpm vitest run src/infra/system-run-command.test.ts src/node-host/invoke-system-run.test.ts src/cli/nodes-cli.coverage.test.ts src/gateway/node-invoke-system-run-approval.test.ts` - `cd apps/macos && swift test --filter ExecSystemRunCommandValidatorTests` ### Fix Commit(s) - `0f0a680d3df81739ea5088a2f88e65f938b7936b` - `55cf92578d266987e390c4bf688196af98eac748` ### Release Process Note `patched_versions` is pre-set to the planned next release (`2026.2.24`) so after npm publish the advisory can be published without further field edits. OpenClaw thanks @tdjackey for reporting. ### Publication Update (2026-02-25) `openclaw@2026.2.24` is published on npm and contains the fix commit(s) listed above. This advisory now marks `>= 2026.2.24` as patched.
