CVE-2026-41390 Details
Description
OpenClaw before 2026.3.28 contains an exec allowlist bypass vulnerability where allow-always persistence fails to unwrap /usr/bin/script and similar wrappers before storing trust decisions. Attackers can obtain user approval for one wrapped command to persist trust for wrapper binaries that execute different underlying programs.
A vulnerability allowing exec allowlist bypass has been identified in OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.3.28. This issue arises because the allow-always persistence feature fails to properly unwrap wrapper binaries, such as /usr/bin/script, before recording trust decisions. As a result, attackers can manipulate user approvals for one wrapped command to gain trust for wrapper binaries that execute different underlying programs.
Users can upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.3.28 or later to address this vulnerability.
