GHSA-7x86-836h-h8c5
OpenClaw versions before 2026.6.9 have an authorization bypass vulnerability in the flock wrapper. This flaw allows lower-trust callers to perform or persist actions beyond their intended permissions by exploiting configured input paths. The vulnerability occurs when the affected feature is enabled, enabling attackers to bypass durable exec approval binding and carry out unauthorized operations.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-62190 describes an authorization bypass vulnerability in OpenClaw's flock wrapper component affecting versions prior to 2026.6.9. The vulnerability allows attackers with lower trust levels to circumvent intended authorization controls by leveraging configured input paths. This bypass impacts durable exec approval binding, permitting unauthorized execution or persistence of actions when the vulnerable feature is active. No known exploits are reported in the wild, and the vulnerability is categorized under CWE-706 (Use of Incorrectly-Resolved Name or Reference).
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation enables attackers with limited privileges to execute or persist unauthorized operations beyond their assigned authorization scope. This could lead to privilege escalation or unauthorized system modifications if the vulnerable feature is enabled.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official patch or fix information is provided, users should monitor vendor communications for updates. Until a fix is available, consider disabling the affected feature if possible to reduce exposure.
