    OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - Command Escalation via Node Pairing Reconnect Bypass

    OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability allowing previously paired nodes to reconnect with exec-capable commands without the operator.admin scope requirement. Attackers can bypass re-pairing authentication to execute privileged …

  • High 7.6

    OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - Server-Side Request Forgery Policy Bypass via Interaction-Triggered Navigation

    OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains a server-side request forgery policy bypass vulnerability allowing attackers to trigger navigations bypassing normal SSRF checks. Attackers can exploit browser interactions to bypass SSRF protections and access restricted res…

  • High 7.5

    OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - strictInlineEval Approval Boundary Bypass via Approval-Timeout Fallback

    OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains an approval-timeout fallback mechanism that bypasses strictInlineEval explicit-approval requirements on gateway and node exec hosts. Attackers can exploit this timeout fallback to execute inline eval commands that should requ…

  • High 7.1

    OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - Missing Integrity Verification in Package Downloads

    OpenClaw versions before 2026.4.8 fail to enforce integrity verification on downloaded plugin archives. Attackers can install malicious or tampered plugin packages without detection, compromising the local assistant environment.

  • Medium 6.7

    OpenClaw < 2026.3.31 - Exec Allowlist Bypass via Shell Init-File Options

    OpenClaw before 2026.3.31 contains an exec allowlist bypass vulnerability allowing attackers to inherit allowlist trust via shell init-file wrapper invocations. Attackers can exploit shell options like --rcfile, --init-file, and --startup-file to load attacke…

  • Medium 6.5

    OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - Strict Browser SSRF Bypass via Playwright Redirect Handling

    OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in Playwright redirect handling that allows attackers to bypass strict SSRF checks. Attackers can exploit request-time navigation to reach private targets that should be restricted …

  • Medium 5.7

    OpenClaw < 2026.4.2 - Cleartext Credential Transmission via Unencrypted WebSocket Gateway Endpoints

    OpenClaw before 2026.4.2 accepts non-loopback cleartext ws:// gateway endpoints and transmits stored gateway credentials over unencrypted connections. Attackers can forge discovery results or craft setup codes to redirect clients to malicious endpoints, discl…

  • Medium 5.7

    OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - Local File Exfiltration via Shared Reply MEDIA Paths

    OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 treats shared reply MEDIA paths as trusted, allowing crafted references to trigger cross-channel local file exfiltration. Attackers can exploit this by crafting malicious shared reply MEDIA references to cause another channel to read …

  • Medium 5.4

    OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - Stale Authentication State via Config Reload

    OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains an authentication state management vulnerability where the resolvedAuth closure becomes stale after configuration reload. Newly accepted gateway connections continue using outdated resolved auth state, allowing attackers to b…

  • Medium 5.4

    OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - WebSocket Session Persistence via Shared Gateway Token Rotation

    OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains a session management vulnerability where existing WebSocket sessions survive shared gateway token rotation. Attackers can maintain unauthorized access to WebSocket connections after token rotation by exploiting the failure to…

  • Medium 5.3

    OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - Git Environment Variable Injection via Unfiltered Exec Environment

    OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 fails to remove git plumbing environment variables from the execution environment before host exec operations. Attackers can exploit this by setting GIT_DIR and related variables to redirect git operations and compromise repository in…

  • Medium 5.3

    OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - Remote Code Execution via Build Tool Environment Variable Injection

    OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains a remote code execution vulnerability caused by missing environment variable denylist entries for HGRCPATH, CARGO_BUILD_RUSTC_WRAPPER, RUSTC_WRAPPER, and MAKEFLAGS. Attackers can inject malicious build tool environment variab…

  • Medium 4.3

    OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - Missing Owner-Only Enforcement in /allowlist Cross-Channel Writes

    OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 omits owner-only enforcement for cross-channel allowlist writes in the /allowlist endpoint. An authorized non-owner sender can bypass access controls to perform allowlist modifications against different channels, violating the intende…

  • Medium 4.3

    OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - Improper Base64 Decoding Size Validation

    OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains improper input validation in base64 decode paths that allocate memory before enforcing decoded-size limits. Attackers can exploit multiple code paths to cause memory exhaustion or denial of service through crafted base64-enco…
