DescriptionCVE.org

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.24 contain a path traversal vulnerability where @-prefixed absolute paths bypass workspace-only file-system boundary validation due to canonicalization mismatch. Attackers can exploit this by crafting @-prefixed paths like @/etc/passwd to read files outside the intended workspace boundary when tools.fs.workspaceOnly is enabled.

AnalysisAI

OpenClaw versions before 2026.2.24 allow authenticated attackers to bypass path traversal protections by using @-prefixed absolute paths that evade workspace boundary validation, enabling unauthorized file access outside the intended directory scope when workspace-only restrictions are configured. The vulnerability stems from a canonicalization mismatch that fails to properly validate these specially-crafted paths, allowing attackers to read arbitrary files on the system.

Technical ContextAI

Path traversal allows an attacker to access files outside the intended directory by manipulating file paths with sequences like '../'.

RemediationAI

Validate and sanitize file path inputs. Use a whitelist of allowed files or directories. Implement chroot jails or containerization.
