CVE-2026-43534 Details
Description
OpenClaw before 2026.4.10 contains an input validation vulnerability that allows external hook metadata to be enqueued as trusted system events. Attackers can supply malicious hook names to escalate untrusted input into higher-trust agent context.
A vulnerability in OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.4.10 allows for insufficient validation of input in agent hook events. This flaw enables external metadata to be processed as trusted system events. Attackers can exploit this by injecting malicious hook names, thereby elevating untrusted data into a higher-trust context within the agent.
Users are advised to upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.4.10 or later. The latest npm release, 2026.4.14, includes the necessary fix.
