CVE-2026-29607 Details
Description
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.22 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability in allow-always wrapper persistence that allows attackers to bypass approval checks by persisting wrapper-level allowlist entries instead of validating inner executable intent. Remote attackers can approve benign wrapped system.run commands and subsequently execute different payloads without approval, enabling remote code execution on gateway and node-host execution flows.
A vulnerability allowing authorization bypass has been identified in OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.22. This issue arises from the persistence of wrapper-level allowlist entries in the 'allow-always' mode, which enables remote attackers to bypass approval checks. By approving benign wrapped 'system.run' commands, attackers can later execute different payloads without approval, leading to remote code execution on both gateway and node-host execution flows.
Users are advised to upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.2.22 or later. If an immediate upgrade is not possible, consider running with a stricter execution policy until the upgrade can be performed.
