OpenClaw versions before 2026.8.1 fail to validate video asset URLs returned by providers, allowing server-side requests to private destinations. (CVE-2026-100577)
OpenClaw versions before 2026.8.1 contain a vulnerability where video asset URLs returned by providers are not properly validated. This flaw allows a malicious or compromised provider to supply URLs pointing to private or loopback network addresses, causing the OpenClaw CLI to make server-side requests to internal services accessible from the host. This can lead to information disclosure and potential impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The vulnerability in OpenClaw prior to version 2026.8.1 arises from insufficient validation of video asset URLs returned by providers. An attacker controlling or compromising a provider can return URLs that point to private or loopback IP addresses. The OpenClaw CLI then performs server-side requests to these internal destinations, which may expose internal services or data not intended to be accessible externally. This is classified under CWE-918 (Server-Side Request Forgery).
Potential Impact
Exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to server-side request forgery (SSRF), allowing an attacker to make the OpenClaw host access internal network resources. This may result in limited confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts as indicated by the CVSS vector (C:L/I:L/A:L). There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
A fix is available in OpenClaw version 2026.8.1. Users should upgrade to this version or later to remediate the vulnerability. No other mitigation guidance is provided or necessary according to the available data.
