CVE-2026-27545

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.26 contain an approval bypass vulnerability in system.run execution that allows attackers to execute commands from unintended filesystem locations by rebinding writable parent symlinks in the current working directory after approval. An attacker can modify mutable parent symlink path components between approval and execution time to redirect command execution to a different location while preserving the visible working directory string.

Summary
  • (es) Las versiones de OpenClaw anteriores a 2026.2.26 contienen una vulnerabilidad de omisión de aprobación en la ejecución de system.run que permite a los atacantes ejecutar comandos desde ubicaciones de sistema de archivos no intencionadas al reasignar symlinks padre escribibles en el directorio de trabajo actual después de la aprobación. Un atacante puede modificar componentes de ruta de symlink padre mutables entre el tiempo de aprobación y ejecución para redirigir la ejecución de comandos a una ubicación diferente mientras se preserva la cadena del directorio de trabajo visible.
