5Description
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.
Analysis
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. …
