CVE-2026-32060 Details
Description
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.14 contain a path traversal vulnerability in apply_patch that allows attackers to write or delete files outside the configured workspace directory. When apply_patch is enabled without filesystem sandbox containment, attackers can exploit crafted paths including directory traversal sequences or absolute paths to escape workspace boundaries and modify arbitrary files.
A path traversal vulnerability has been identified in OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.14, specifically within the apply_patch function. This vulnerability allows attackers to write or delete files outside the designated workspace directory. The issue arises when apply_patch is enabled without proper filesystem sandboxing, enabling crafted paths that include directory traversal sequences or absolute paths to escape workspace limitations and alter arbitrary files.
Users can update to OpenClaw version 2026.2.14 or later, keep the apply_patch feature disabled if not needed, and restrict who can execute tools that use the apply_patch function.
