OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.25 contain an approval-integrity bypass vulnerability in system.run where rendered command text is used as approval identity while trimming argv token whitespace, but runtime execution uses raw argv. An attacker can craft a trailing-space executable token to execute a different binary than what the approver displayed, allowing unexpected command execution under the OpenClaw runtime user when they can influence command argv and reuse an approval context.
AnalysisAI
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.25 contain an approval-integrity bypass vulnerability in the system.run function where the rendered command text displayed to approvers has whitespace trimmed from argv tokens, but the actual runtime execution uses the raw, untrimmed argv. An attacker with the ability to influence command arguments and reuse an approval context can craft a trailing-space executable token to execute a different binary than what was approved, resulting in arbitrary command execution under the OpenClaw runtime user. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS v3.1 vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N) indicates network attack vector with high complexity and low privileges required, demanding user interaction (approval action), with high integrity impact and no confidentiality or availability impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A low-privileged authenticated user in an organization using OpenClaw crafts a command such as 'system.run /usr/bin/safe_tool ' (with a trailing space) and requests approval. The approval interface displays '/usr/bin/safe_tool' (trimmed), which appears legitimate and is approved by an administrator. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade OpenClaw to version 2026.2.25 or later immediately. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
