{"id":"CVE-2026-26325","aliases":["GHSA-h3f9-mjwj-w476"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2026-26325","summary":"OpenClaw Node host system.run rawCommand/command mismatch can bypass allowlist/approvals","details":"## Summary\n\nA mismatch between `rawCommand` and `command[]` in the node host `system.run` handler could cause allowlist/approval evaluation to be performed on one command while executing a different argv.\n\n## Affected Configurations\n\nThis only impacts deployments that:\n\n- Use the node host / companion node execution path (`system.run` on a node).\n- Enable allowlist-based exec policy (`security=allowlist`) with approval prompting driven by allowlist misses (for example `ask=on-miss`).\n- Allow an attacker to invoke `system.run`.\n\nDefault/non-node configurations are not affected.\n\n## Impact\n\nIn affected configurations, an attacker who can invoke `system.run` can bypass allowlist enforcement and approval prompts by supplying an allowlisted `rawCommand` while providing a different `command[]` argv for execution.\n\n## Affected Packages / Versions\n\n- Package: `openclaw` (npm)\n- Affected versions: `<= 2026.2.13`\n- Patched version: `>= 2026.2.14` (planned next release)\n\n## Fix\n\nEnforce `rawCommand`/`command[]` consistency (gateway fail-fast + node host validation).\n\n## Fix Commit(s)\n\n- cb3290fca32593956638f161d9776266b90ab891\n\n## Release Process Note\n\nThis advisory pre-sets the patched version to the planned next release (`2026.2.14`). Once `openclaw@2026.2.14` is published to npm, the advisory can be published without further edits.\n\nThanks @christos-eth for reporting.","published":"2026-02-19T22:53:17.545Z","modified":"2026-08-12T03:51:16.204604173Z","cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"openclaw","fixedVersion":"2026.2.14"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/cb3290fca32593956638f161d9776266b90ab891","label":"openclaw/openclaw@cb3290f"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/releases/tag/v2026.2.14"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/26xxx/CVE-2026-26325.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-h3f9-mjwj-w476"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-26325"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/cb3290fca32593956638f161d9776266b90ab891"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-12T03:51:16.204604173Z"}}
