AI-suggested
A patch is available for OpenClaw version 2026.3.28 and later that addresses this environment variable sanitization issue. Since OpenClaw is a cloud service, the vendor manages remediation server-side. Users should verify that their OpenClaw environment is updated to the fixed version or confirm with the vendor that the service has been patched. No additional user action is required beyond ensuring the environment is up to date.
Description
OpenClaw versions before 2026.3.28 have an environment variable sanitization vulnerability due to an incomplete blocklist that omits GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR and AWS_CONFIG_FILE. This flaw allows attackers to exploit approved execution requests by redirecting git or AWS CLI behavior through malicious configuration files, potentially leading to execution of untrusted code or loading of malicious credentials. The vulnerability has a medium severity score of 5.8 and affects local attack vectors with high attack complexity and limited privileges required. A patch is available, and as OpenClaw is a cloud service, the vendor manages remediation server-side.
