CVE-2026-41380 Details
Description
OpenClaw before 2026.3.28 contains an execution approval vulnerability in exec-approvals-allowlist.ts that allows allow-always persistence to trust wrapper carrier executables instead of invoked targets. Attackers can exploit positional carrier executable routing through dispatch wrappers to establish broader allowlist entries than intended, weakening execution approval boundaries.
A vulnerability in OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.3.28 allows for improper execution approval by trusting wrapper carrier executables instead of the actual invoked targets. This flaw, located in 'exec-approvals-allowlist.ts', enables attackers to manipulate executable routing through dispatch wrappers, creating broader allowlist entries than intended and undermining execution approval boundaries. The vulnerability requires user interaction and could lead to unauthorized execution of commands.
Users can upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.3.28 or later to address this vulnerability.
