Description

Duplicate Advisory: OpenClaw: Unbound interpreter and runtime commands could bypass node-host approval integrity

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-xf99-j42q-5w5p. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

OpenClaw before 2026.3.11 contains an approval integrity vulnerability allowing attackers to execute rewritten local code by modifying scripts between approval and execution when exact file binding cannot occur. Remote attackers can change approved local scripts before execution to achieve unintended code execution as the OpenClaw runtime user.

How this vulnerability can be exploited

This issue can be reached with local access to the system, attack complexity is low, an attacker needs low-level privileges on the target. A user must be tricked into taking some action. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality high, integrity high, availability high.

Weakness class

GHSA-wmgj-hrx3-23gj is classified as CWE-367: Time-of-check Time-of-use Race Condition. The state checked and the state acted upon can differ, because it may change between the two steps.
