CVE-2026-29611 Details
Description
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.14 contain a local file inclusion vulnerability in BlueBubbles extension (must be installed and enabled) media path handling that allows attackers to read arbitrary files from the local filesystem. The sendBlueBubblesMedia function fails to validate mediaPath parameters against an allowlist, enabling attackers to request sensitive files like /etc/passwd and exfiltrate them as media attachments.
A local file inclusion vulnerability has been identified in the OpenClaw application, specifically within the BlueBubbles extension, in versions prior to 2026.2.14. This vulnerability allows attackers to read arbitrary files from the local filesystem. The issue arises in the 'sendBlueBubblesMedia' function, which handles media path parameters without proper validation against an allowlist. As a result, attackers can exploit this flaw to access sensitive files, such as '/etc/passwd', and exfiltrate them as media attachments.
Users should upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.2.14 or later and configure the 'channels.bluebubbles.mediaLocalRoots' setting to include explicit trusted directories.
