CVE-2026-101885 Details
Description
ZeroClaw versions before 0.8.5 built with plugins-wasm feature contain a path traversal vulnerability in plugin installation that fails to validate the wasm_path manifest field. Attackers can convince users to install crafted plugins that write arbitrary files to paths outside the plugins directory, such as shell startup files, enabling code execution.
A path traversal vulnerability has been identified in ZeroClaw versions prior to 0.8.5, specifically in builds that include the plugins-wasm feature. This vulnerability arises during the plugin installation process, where the wasm_path manifest field is not properly validated. As a result, attackers can create malicious plugins that, when installed by users, write arbitrary files to locations outside the designated plugins directory. This could include overwriting shell startup files, potentially leading to unauthorized code execution.
Users can upgrade to ZeroClaw version 0.8.5 or later, where this vulnerability has been addressed.
