CVE-2026-45087 Go CRITICAL PATCH GHSA Act Now

Unauthenticated remote code execution in Dalfox REST API server mode (versions ≤2.12.0) allows network attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands by injecting shell payloads via the `found-action` parameter in POST /scan requests. The server binds to 0.0.0.0:6664 by default with no API key enforcement unless explicitly configured, and deserializes attacker-controlled JSON directly into execution-control options without sanitization. Attackers trivially guarantee exploitation by hosting a reflective XSS endpoint to trigger the injected command. Fixed in version 2.13.0. CVSS 10.0 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H). EPSS data not available; no CISA KEV listing at time of analysis. Public exploit code exists (detailed proof-of-concept published in GitHub advisory GHSA-v25v-m36w-jp4h).

CVE-2026-43531 npm HIGH PATCH This Week

Environment variable injection in OpenClaw npm package versions before 2026.4.9 allows local attackers with low privileges to compromise application behavior through malicious workspace .env files. Attackers can redirect update sources to serve backdoored packages, modify gateway URLs and ClawHub resolution endpoints to intercept traffic, and override browser executable paths to launch attacker-controlled binaries. Vendor-released patch: version 2026.4.9, with fix also present in latest npm release 2026.4.14. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but exploitation requires only an untrusted repository with a crafted .env file opened by a victim user.

CVE-2026-41384 npm HIGH PATCH GHSA This Week

Environment variable injection in OpenClaw's CLI backend runner enables local attackers to achieve arbitrary code execution or exfiltrate sensitive data by manipulating workspace configuration files. Attackers with the ability to supply malicious workspace configs can inject environment variables into backend processes during spawning, exploiting CWE-15 (external control of system or configuration setting). Vendor patch available via GitHub commit c2fb7f1. CVSS 8.5 reflects high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability, though exploitation requires local access and user interaction to load the malicious workspace config. No evidence of active exploitation (not in CISA KEV) or public proof-of-concept at time of analysis.

CVE-2026-41294 npm HIGH PATCH GHSA This Week

OpenClaw versions before 2026.3.28 allow local attackers to inject malicious environment variables by placing a .env file in the current working directory, which is loaded before trusted state-directory configuration during application startup. This enables attackers to override security-sensitive runtime settings without privileges, achieving high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact with low complexity when a user launches OpenClaw from a compromised directory. Exploitation probability is minimal (EPSS 0.01%, percentile 2%) with no active exploitation confirmed (not in CISA KEV), but a public advisory from VulnCheck describes the attack mechanism, making exploitation straightforward for local threat actors.

Cortex XDR agent on Windows versions 7.9-CE through 9.0 allows authenticated local administrators to disable the agent through a protection mechanism bypass, enabling malware to operate undetected. The vulnerability requires high privileges and local access, but creates a critical detection evasion vector when exploited by administratively compromised systems or insider threats. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been reported at time of analysis.

CVE-2026-35650 npm HIGH PATCH GHSA This Week

Remote code execution in OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.3.22 allows authenticated attackers to bypass shared host environment policy via inconsistent environment variable sanitization. Attackers exploit validation inconsistencies by supplying malformed or blocked override keys that evade filtering mechanisms, enabling arbitrary code execution with unauthorized environment variable configurations. Vulnerability requires low-privilege authentication and high attack complexity. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.

Local privilege escalation in Acronis True Image for macOS enables authenticated low-privileged users to gain elevated system privileges through improper environment variable handling. Affects Acronis True Image OEM (macOS) versions prior to build 42571 and Acronis True Image (macOS) prior to build 42902. Attackers with existing local access can achieve complete system compromise (high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact). No public exploit identified at time of analysis. Exploitation requires low attack complexity with no user interaction.

SSL bundle configuration bypass in VMware Spring Cloud Gateway 4.2.0 allows unaneticated remote attackers to compromise integrity through forced fallback to default SSL settings. When administrators configure custom SSL bundles via spring.ssl.bundle property, the framework silently ignores this configuration and applies insecure defaults instead, enabling man-in-the-middle attacks against intended encrypted communications. Affects Spring Cloud Gateway 4.2.0 with no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
