DescriptionCVE.org

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.21 sandbox browser entrypoint launches x11vnc without authentication for noVNC observer sessions, allowing unauthenticated access to the VNC interface. Remote attackers on the host loopback interface can connect to the exposed noVNC port to observe or interact with the sandbox browser without credentials.

AnalysisAI

OpenClaw sandbox browser functionality launches x11vnc for noVNC observer sessions without requiring authentication, allowing any attacker with access to the host's loopback interface to view or interact with sandboxed browser sessions without credentials. All OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.21 are affected. This vulnerability has been publicly disclosed with patches available from the vendor, though no EPSS score, KEV status, or public POC references were provided in the intelligence data.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability affects OpenClaw (cpe:2.3:a:openclaw:openclaw:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*), specifically the sandbox browser entrypoint component that utilizes x11vnc to expose VNC sessions through noVNC for browser-based observer functionality. The root cause is CWE-306 (Missing Authentication for Critical Function), where the x11vnc server is configured to accept connections without any authentication mechanism. The noVNC interface, typically used to provide web-based VNC access, becomes accessible to any process or user capable of connecting to the loopback interface where the VNC port is exposed. This represents a fundamental authentication bypass in a critical security boundary intended to isolate sandbox browser sessions.

RemediationAI

Upgrade OpenClaw to version 2026.2.21 or later, which includes patches that address the missing VNC authentication issue. The vendor has published specific fix commits at https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/621d8e1312482f122f18c43c72c67211b141da01 and https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/8c1518f0f3e0533593cd2dec3a46c9b746753661 that can be reviewed for implementation details. Until patching is completed, organizations should implement network-level controls to restrict access to the VNC/noVNC ports on the loopback interface, use firewall rules to limit connections only from authorized processes, or disable the sandbox browser observer functionality entirely if not operationally required. Consult the GitHub security advisory at https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-25gx-x37c-7pph for additional vendor guidance.
