Description
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.22 contain an arbitrary shell execution vulnerability in shell environment fallback that trusts the unvalidated SHELL path from the host environment. An attacker with local environment access can inject a malicious SHELL variable to execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the OpenClaw process.
Analysis
OpenClaw versions before 2026.2.22 allow local attackers with environment access to execute arbitrary commands by manipulating the SHELL environment variable, which is insufficiently validated during shell fallback operations. An attacker can leverage this to run malicious code with the privileges of the OpenClaw process. …
