DescriptionCVE.org
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.26 contain an approval context-binding weakness in system.run execution flows with host=node that allows reuse of previously approved requests with modified environment variables. Attackers with access to an approval id can exploit this by reusing an approval with changed env input, bypassing execution-integrity controls in approval-enabled workflows.
AnalysisAI
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.26 contain an approval context-binding weakness that allows attackers to reuse previously approved system.run execution requests with modified environment variables, bypassing approval-enabled workflow integrity controls. An attacker with access to an approval ID can exploit this vulnerability to execute commands with different environment settings than originally approved, effectively circumventing execution-integrity safeguards. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS v3.1 score of 2.6 reflects several mitigating factors: Network attack vector (AV:N) is somewhat offset by high attack complexity (AC:H), requirement for local privileges (PR:L), and user interaction (UI:R). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An insider with access to OpenClaw approvals (PR:L requirement) identifies a previously approved deployment request with a specific set of environment variables. The attacker obtains the approval ID and, before execution occurs, modifies the environment variables in the request (e.g., changing a database connection string or API endpoint) while keeping the same approval ID. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade OpenClaw to version 2026.2.26 or later to apply the patch. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
During next maintenance window: Apply vendor patches when convenient. …
