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-encoded input.

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 Newly accepted gateway connections continue using outdated resolved auth state, allowing attackers to bypass authentication controls through co…

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 integrity.

OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in QQ Bot media download paths that bypass SSRF protection. Attackers can exploit unprotected media fetch endpoints to access internal resources and bypass allowlist policies.

OpenClaw before 2026.4.4 contains a race condition vulnerability in shared-secret authentication that allows concurrent asynchronous requests to bypass the per-key rate-limit budget. Attackers can exploit this by sending multiple simultaneous authentication attempts to circumvent intended rate-limi…

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 resources.

OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains a filesystem policy bypass vulnerability in docx upload processing that allows local file reads outside workspace boundaries. Attackers can exploit upload_file and upload_image endpoints to access files beyond the intended workspace-only filesystem policy.

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 intended trust model.

OpenClaw before 2026.3.31 contains a resource exhaustion vulnerability in media downloads that bypasses core safety limits for file size, count, and cleanup operations. Attackers can exhaust disk space by downloading media files without triggering intended safety restrictions, causing availability …

OpenClaw before 2026.4.2 contains a timing side channel vulnerability in shared-secret comparison call sites that use early length-mismatch checks instead of fixed-length comparison helpers. Attackers can measure timing differences to leak secret-length information, weakening constant-time handling…
