OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.9.4 have an authorization vulnerability in the mcp.app.view method. This flaw allows users with operator.read tokens to perform actions that require operator.write scope by obtaining and redeeming a standalone ticket. This enables unauthorized invocation of state-changing tools without proper authorization checks.

OpenClaw versions before 2026.9.5 have an authorization vulnerability in the Gateway's local media root allowlist that breaks filesystem isolation between sandboxed sessions. This flaw allows sandboxed or untrusted content to read files from other session sandboxes or shared workspace directories via media pipeline functions that do not properly restrict read access. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 6.3, indicating medium severity.

OpenClaw versions before 2026.7.1 fail to properly authorize non-owner users executing MCP configuration changes through /mcp set and /mcp unset commands. Attackers can persist arbitrary stdio MCP commands that execute with OpenClaw process privileges when configuration loads, compromising host confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

OpenClaw versions 2026.5.1 through 2026.7.0 fail to apply the configured exec approval path to Google Meet node commands. The googlemeet.chrome command accepts caller-supplied audio command arrays and executes them on a paired node without going through the normal system.run approval flow. In deployments with the Google Meet plugin enabled, a paired Chrome node, and the googlemeet.chrome node command allowed, a tool-enabled agent able to invoke that command can execute attacker-selected processes on the paired node, impacting files, credentials, browser profiles, and availability on that node. The issue is fixed in 2026.7.1; as a workaround, remove googlemeet.chrome from allowed node commands or disable the Google Meet plugin.

OpenClaw versions before 2026.7.1 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability in the diagnostics export command that allows non-owner channel senders to access owner-only host diagnostic bundles. Attackers can request and receive diagnostic details about the host, configuration, runtime, and connected services intended only for owners.

OpenClaw versions before 2026.7.1 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability in the /export-trajectory endpoint that allows non-owner senders to request and receive owner-only trajectory bundles. Attackers can access prompts, model messages, tool schemas, runtime events, and local path metadata from affected sessions by exploiting insufficient authorization checks.

OpenClaw versions before 2026.7.1 contain a sandbox bypass vulnerability in the browser tool that allows sandboxed sessions to access paired node browser actions despite allowHostControl=false configuration. Attackers with control over sandboxed agent input can select a paired node and perform host browser operations, inspecting or manipulating the connected browser profile and its authenticated state.

OpenClaw before 2026.7.1 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in the /voice set command that allows non-owner external-channel senders to persist Gateway voice configuration. Attackers with command access can change the voice used by Talk responses for the configured provider, affecting configuration integrity without exposing credentials or granting additional host capabilities.

OpenClaw for iOS before 2026.8.11 stores Gateway credentials as cleartext JSON in App Group UserDefaults instead of the device Keychain. Attackers with access to unencrypted device backups or extracted App Group containers can recover valid Gateway tokens and passwords to authenticate with operator authority.

OpenClaw versions before 2026.7.1 fail to properly validate owner authorization in the Codex computer-use installation command. Non-owner channel senders can install arbitrary plugins and execute MCP processes with OpenClaw user privileges, affecting host confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
