EPSS · scored 2026-10-27

OpenClaw before 2026.3.11 contains a sandbox boundary bypass vulnerability allowing leaf subagents to access the subagents control surface and resolve against parent requester scope instead of their own session tree. A low-privilege sandboxed leaf worker can steer or kill sibling runs and cause execution with broader tool policies by exploiting insufficient authorization checks on subagent control requests.

  • WID-SEC-W-2026-0727OpenClaw: Mehrere SchwachstellenDeutsch2026-03-15csaf · cert_bundDE

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

  • GHSA-4w7m-58cg-cmffOpenClaw: Leaf subagents could steer sibling sessions across sandbox boundaries2026-03-13ghsa · osvUS

    ## Summary In affected versions of `openclaw`, sandboxed leaf subagents could still access the `subagents` control surface and resolve against the parent requester scope instead of remaining confined to their own session tree. ## Impact A low-privilege sandboxed leaf worker could steer or kill a sibling run owned by the same requester and cause that sibling to execute with its own broader tool policy. This is a sandbox and session-scope boundary bypass. ## Affected Packages and Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Affected versions: `<= 2026.3.8` - Fixed in: `2026.3.11` ## Technical Details Leaf subagents retained the `subagents` tool, and subagent control requests were authorized against the parent requester scope rather than the caller's own spawned descendants. The control path prevented only self-targeting, not cross-sibling steering. ## Fix OpenClaw now removes `subagents` control access from leaf subagents by default, scopes subagent control to the caller's own descendants, and rejects `steer` and `kill` requests that target runs outside that descendant tree. The fix shipped in `openclaw@2026.3.11`. ## Workarounds Upgrade to `2026.3.11` or later.
