CVSS v3.1 |
| OpenClaw (npm package 'openclaw') versions >= 2026.3.28 and < 2026.8.1 allow an untrusted workspace .env file to set the CLOUDSDK_PYTHON_ARGS environment variable. When an operator starts OpenClaw in attacker-controlled workspace content and then runs the Gmail setup flow, that value is inherited when gcloud is launched, and the gcloud launcher passes it as arguments to the trusted Python interpreter. A crafted CLOUDSDK_PYTHON_ARGS value can therefore cause Python to execute attacker-supplied code with the OpenClaw host user's permissions, allowing credentials to be read, files to be modified, or other processes to be started. This issue is fixed in version 2026.8.1; as a workaround, run Gmail setup only from trusted workspaces and clear inherited CLOUDSDK_* variables beforehand. |
| OpenClaw is an npm-distributed application. In versions >= 2026.4.25 and < 2026.8.1, the workspace environment-variable filter did not block variables ending in `_ENDPOINT`, so an untrusted workspace `.env` file could set AZURE_SPEECH_ENDPOINT. Azure Speech preferred that value over the configured region, so when a synthesis or voice-list request was made, the attacker-selected endpoint received the operator's Azure Speech key in the request header, allowing the key to be reused against the operator's Azure Speech resource. Exploitation requires an operator to start OpenClaw in attacker-controlled workspace content with Azure Speech configured with a key and region and no trusted endpoint override set. The issue is fixed in 2026.8.1. |
| OpenClaw versions before 2026.8.1 fail to properly restrict access to operator command cron jobs, allowing model-visible agent callers to read and execute ownerless command jobs. Attackers can inspect stored environment variables and force-run disabled or unscheduled command jobs to access secrets and execute operator-authored commands. |
| OpenClaw is an agent gateway distributed as the npm package 'openclaw'. In versions >= 2026.4.5 and < 2026.8.1, the Gateway validated a single DNS resolution result for a configured remote Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) hostname, but the raw WebSocket and Playwright transports performed a later, independent DNS resolution, discarding the DNS pinning enforced at validation time. An attacker who controls an approved CDP hostname or its DNS answers can exploit this check-then-use gap via DNS rebinding to make the Gateway connect to a loopback, private, link-local, cloud metadata, or other SSRF-policy-denied address. The impact depends on the remote CDP configuration, DNS timing, and the services reachable from the Gateway host. The issue is fixed in 2026.8.1; as a mitigation, disable hostname-based remote CDP endpoints or restrict them to trusted, stable infrastructure. |
| OpenClaw LINE versions before 2026.8.1 contain an access control vulnerability where group allowlist mode silently inherits DM allowFrom values when groupAllowFrom is not explicitly configured. Attackers with group participation can trigger the agent despite configured group allowlist restrictions when DM access is broader than intended group access. |
| OpenClaw versions before 2026.8.1 fail to neutralize spreadsheet formula characters in participant display names within attendance CSV exports. Attackers can inject formula-like cells that execute with spreadsheet user permissions when the export is opened in formula-enabled applications. |
| OpenClaw (npm package `openclaw`) before 2026.8.1 does not neutralize leading characters that spreadsheet applications interpret as formulas when the Control UI exports session data to CSV. Although session labels were quoted as CSV text, a lower-trust participant who can influence a session label or the first user message can place a formula-like cell in the Usage export; if an operator opens that export in a spreadsheet application with formula evaluation enabled, the cell may be evaluated with the permissions of the spreadsheet user. OpenClaw itself does not evaluate the formula, and practical impact depends on the spreadsheet application's security settings. The issue is fixed in 2026.8.1. |
| OpenClaw versions before 2026.8.1 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability in the sessions.create endpoint that allows operator.write callers to modify session configurations reserved for operator.admin scope. Attackers with write-scoped credentials can change existing session model, provider, thinking level, and auth-profile settings to redirect traffic and bypass administrative access controls. |
| OpenClaw (npm package 'openclaw') versions >= 2026.3.22 and < 2026.8.1 contain an approval-bypass flaw in the exec approval policy: the policy could trust a command-running wrapper without inspecting the command carried in its arguments. After an operator allowlisted or permanently approved a benign wrapper invocation, a later agent turn could substitute an arbitrary inner command and execute it with the OpenClaw process's host privileges without a further approval prompt. Exploitation requires the relevant wrapper to resolve on the host and a prior operator decision allowing that wrapper. Transparent shell carriers and opaque utilities such as process monitors, tracers, namespace tools, and proxy wrappers were affected through related trust-resolution gaps. Fixed in 2026.8.1. |
| OpenClaw versions before 2026.8.1 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability where Allow Always approvals for exact commands persist as path-only grants on macOS and Linux. Attackers can reuse the same executable with different arguments to execute commands without triggering new approval prompts, potentially accessing files or internal services. |
| OpenClaw versions before 2026.8.1 contain a command parser vulnerability where escaped newlines confuse exec allowlist parsing, allowing hidden commands to execute. Attackers can craft input with escaped newlines to bypass allowlist validation and execute additional commands without expected authorization prompts. |
| OpenClaw versions before 2026.8.1 contain a resource exhaustion vulnerability in the Gateway listener that allows unauthenticated clients to retain response sockets by sending WebSocket upgrade requests without matching connection semantics. Attackers can repeatedly send malformed upgrade requests to exhaust listener resources and cause denial of service without consuming the WebSocket pre-auth connection budget. |
| OpenClaw versions before 2026.8.1 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability in skill tool dispatch that fails to carry the sender's owner status. Non-owner senders authorized to invoke skill commands can access owner-only tools and server credentials reserved for owners. |
| OpenClaw (npm package openclaw) versions >= 2026.5.2 and < 2026.8.1 contain an incorrect authorization vulnerability in WhatsApp group handling. A group sender who is admitted for ordinary messages but denied by commands.allowFrom or owner command authorization can issue the /new <model> command to reset the shared group session and persist a provider and model override. This allows a command-denied group member to select a provider and model already permitted by the operator for subsequent turns in the shared group session, potentially changing provider routing, cost, data flow, or availability. It does not allow adding a new provider or host command execution. The issue is fixed in version 2026.8.1. |
| OpenClaw is an npm-distributed gateway application. In versions >= 2026.7.1 and < 2026.8.1, Synology Chat attachment delivery could lose DNS pinning: the Gateway validated a single DNS result for a supplied file URL but then passed the original hostname to the Synology NAS, where it could resolve to a different destination. When attachment delivery accepted a remotely influenced hostname, an attacker could use DNS rebinding to make the NAS fetch a private or otherwise policy-denied resource and return its contents to the addressed conversation (server-side request forgery). Practical impact depends on NAS routing, resolver behavior, and the response available at the private destination. The issue is fixed in 2026.8.1; as a workaround, disable remote URL attachment forwarding in Synology Chat. |
| OpenClaw (npm package 'openclaw') versions >= 2026.5.12 and < 2026.8.1 do not immediately invalidate Canvas HTTP authorization when a paired node is revoked. Node revocation invalidates the WebSocket client, but Canvas HTTP authorization continues to accept and renew the previously granted capability until WebSocket close cleanup completes. As a result, a revoked paired node can continue exercising its Canvas capability against the capability's configured routes during the close grace period. The issue is fixed in 2026.8.1; as a workaround, restart the Gateway after revoking a node that has Canvas access. |
| OpenClaw versions >= 2026.6.9 and < 2026.8.1 do not declare the native chatId parameter as a delivery target in the Feishu unpin feature, so unpin requests can bypass the shared same-provider cross-context target check. When tools.message.crossContext.allowWithinProvider is disabled, an admitted (authenticated) sender can remove a pin from another Feishu group that the sender and the configured account are otherwise permitted to access, bypassing the intended cross-context message mutation policy. Feishu membership and group authorization still apply, and the demonstrated impact is limited to message mutation (pin removal). The issue is fixed in 2026.8.1. |
| OpenClaw (npm package 'openclaw') before 2026.8.1 does not correctly enforce per-chat tool policies for Codex app-server runtime tools. A conversation-level tools.allow rule filtered OpenClaw tools but did not restrict the shell, process, file, and patch tools owned by the Codex runtime. When a lower-trust conversation was assigned to a Codex runtime and restricted with a per-chat tool allowlist, a participant able to trigger that agent could still reach native command and file tools, bypassing the configured allowlist. The practical impact depends on the runtime's host permissions and sandbox configuration. The issue is fixed in 2026.8.1. |
| OpenClaw for iOS versions >= 2026.7.1 and < 2026.8.11 do not enforce saved Gateway TLS pins in the Control UI. While native connections enforced the saved Gateway fingerprint, the authenticated Terminal and session Dashboard WebViews omitted it. If a user had accepted a Gateway fingerprint, an attacker able to redirect the same host and port and present a different certificate that is accepted by iOS system trust can serve a replacement Control UI page; opening the Terminal or a session Dashboard then allows that page to read the injected Gateway token or password. The stolen credential can grant operator access, including reading sensitive Gateway state and invoking host-capable tools. This issue is fixed in 2026.8.11. |
| OpenClaw (npm package 'openclaw') before 2026.8.1 contains an access-control bypass in the Microsoft Teams integration. When groupPolicy is set to allowlist, a missing or unsupported configured access group produces a denied group-resolution result that is not rejected by the final message-admission check, so a Teams member who is not on the allowlist can still trigger the configured agent despite the administrator's group boundary. The impact depends on the conversations, tools, and data available to that agent. The issue is fixed in version 2026.8.1. |
