EPSS · scored 2026-10-27

OpenClaw before 2026.4.20 contains a guard bypass vulnerability in the agent-facing gateway config.patch and config.apply endpoints that fails to protect operator-trusted settings including sandbox policy, plugin enablement, gateway auth/TLS, hook routing, MCP server configuration, SSRF policy, and filesystem hardening. A prompt-injected model with access to the owner-only gateway tool can persist unauthorized changes to protected operator settings.

  • GHSA-7jm2-g593-4qrcOpenClaw: Agent gateway config mutations could change protected operator settings2026-04-25ghsa · osvUS

    ## Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Affected versions: `< 2026.4.20` - Patched version: `2026.4.20` ## Impact The agent-facing `gateway config.patch` / `config.apply` guard did not cover several operator-trusted settings, including sandbox policy, plugin enablement, gateway auth/TLS, hook routing, MCP server configuration, SSRF policy, and filesystem hardening. A prompt-injected model with access to the owner-only gateway tool could persist changes to those settings. This is a model-to-operator guard bypass, not a remote unauthenticated gateway compromise. Severity is medium. ## Fix OpenClaw now blocks model-driven gateway config mutations for the broader operator-trusted path set and covers per-agent overrides and array-entry patching. Fix commit: - `fe30b31a97a917ecc6e92f6c85378b6b20352422` ## Release Fixed in OpenClaw `2026.4.20`.
