      <title>BREW-openclaw-cli-CVE-2026-28460 — OpenClaw's system.run allowlist bypass via shell line-continuation command substitution</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/brew-openclaw-cli-cve-2026-28460</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Homebrew: openclaw-cli&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Summary
In OpenClaw `system.run` allowlist mode, shell-wrapper analysis could be bypassed by splitting command substitution as `$\\` + newline + `(` inside double quotes. Analysis treated the payload as allowlisted (for example `/bin/echo`), while shell runtime folded the line continuation into `$(...)` and executed non-allowlisted subcommands.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Affected Packages / Versions
- Package: npm `openclaw`
- Latest published affected version: `2026.2.21-2`
- Affected range: `&amp;lt;=2026.2.21-2`
- Patched version (planned next release): `2026.2.22`&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Impact
In deployments that opt into `tools.exec.security=allowlist` (with `ask=on-miss` or `off`), this can bypass approval boundaries and lead to unintended command execution.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Fix Commit(s)
- `3f0b9dbb36c86e308267924c0d3d4a4e1fc4d1e9`&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Remediation
- Upgrade to `2026.2.22` (or newer) when published.
- Temporary mitigation: set `tools.exec.ask=always` or `tools.exec.security=deny`.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Release Process Note
`patched_versions` is pre-set to planned next release `2026.2.22`. After npm release is out, this advisory should be ready for direct publish without additional metadata edits.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;OpenClaw thanks @tdjackey for reporting.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>CVE-2026-28460 — OpenClaw &lt; 2026.2.22 - Allowlist Bypass via Shell Line-Continuation Command Substitution in system.run</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-28460</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; OpenClaw&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.22 contain an allowlist bypass vulnerability in system.run that allows attackers to execute non-allowlisted commands by splitting command substitution using shell line-continuation characters. Attackers can bypass security analysis by injecting $\\ followed by a newline and opening parenthesis inside double quotes, causing the shell to fold the line continuation into executable command substitution that circumvents approval boundaries.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
