Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability was determined in nextlevelbuilder GoClaw up to 3.13.3-beta.3. This impacts the function matchesAllowlist/extractBin of the file internal/tools/exec_approval.go. Executing a manipulation can lead to incorrectly-resolved name. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized.
AnalysisAI
Name resolution bypass in GoClaw's exec approval subsystem allows remote low-privileged attackers to circumvent the binary execution allowlist. Affecting all versions up to and including 3.13.3-beta.3, the flaw resides in the matchesAllowlist and extractBin functions within internal/tools/exec_approval.go, where crafted input causes the allowlist check to resolve a name or reference incorrectly, permitting unauthorized binary execution. A publicly disclosed proof-of-concept exploit exists (GitHub issue #1213); no CISA KEV listing is present, indicating no confirmed widespread active exploitation at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
GoClaw (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:nextlevelbuilder:goclaw:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is a Go-language tool by nextlevelbuilder that implements an execution approval mechanism gating which binaries may be run. The vulnerable logic lives in internal/tools/exec_approval.go, specifically the matchesAllowlist function that validates submitted binary names against an allowlist and extractBin that parses the binary name from a request. CWE-706 (Use of Incorrectly-Resolved Name or Reference) describes the root cause: the software resolves a name through a path or method that yields a different resource than intended, allowing an attacker to supply a crafted name that the allowlist check evaluates as permitted but which actually maps to a different, unauthorized binary. This class of flaw is common in allowlist or sandbox bypass scenarios where normalization (e.g., path traversal sequences, symlink resolution, or encoding differences) is inconsistent between the validation step and the execution step.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patched version has been independently confirmed at time of analysis; the fix status should be monitored via the upstream GitHub repository at https://github.com/nextlevelbuilder/goclaw/ and issue #1213 (https://github.com/nextlevelbuilder/goclaw/issues/1213). As a compensating control, restrict access to GoClaw's execution approval interface to the minimum necessary set of authenticated principals, reducing the pool of accounts that can trigger the vulnerable matchesAllowlist/extractBin code path. Additionally, enforce OS-level controls (e.g., Linux seccomp profiles, AppArmor/SELinux policies, or container capability restrictions) on the process running GoClaw to limit which binaries can actually be executed even if the allowlist is bypassed. Audit logs of all execution approval requests should be reviewed for anomalous binary names containing path traversal sequences, encoding variations, or unexpected delimiters.
