{"id":"CVE-2026-32046","aliases":["GHSA-43x4-g22p-3hrq"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2026-32046","summary":"OpenClaw < 2026.2.21 - OS-level Sandbox Bypass via --no-sandbox Flag","details":"## Summary\nSandbox browser container launched Chromium with `--no-sandbox` by default, disabling Chromium's OS-level sandbox protections.\n\n## Affected Packages / Versions\n- Package: `openclaw` (npm ecosystem)\n- Latest published npm version at triage time (2026-02-21): `2026.2.19-2`\n- Affected range: `<= 2026.2.19-2`\n- Planned patched version for next release: `2026.2.21`\n\n## Impact\nWhen `--no-sandbox` is enabled by default, renderer compromise no longer requires a separate sandbox escape. This weakens container browser isolation and increases impact from renderer-side bugs.\n\n## Resolution\n- Default `--no-sandbox` removed from sandbox browser entrypoint.\n- Explicit opt-in added via `OPENCLAW_BROWSER_NO_SANDBOX` / `CLAWDBOT_BROWSER_NO_SANDBOX`.\n- Browser container hash migration + security audit checks added so stale containers are surfaced and can be recreated safely.\n\n## Fix Commit(s)\n- e7eba01efc4c3c400e9cfd3ce3d661cbc788a631\n- 1835dec2004fe7a62c6a7ba46b8485f124ec6199\n\n## Release Process Note\nThe advisory `patched_versions` field is pre-set to the planned next release (`2026.2.21`). After npm release publication, only advisory publish action should remain.\n\nOpenClaw thanks @TerminalsandCoffee for reporting.","published":"2026-03-21T00:42:20.458Z","modified":"2026-08-12T03:51:22.862148429Z","cvss":null,"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"openclaw","fixedVersion":"2026.2.21"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/1835dec2004fe7a62c6a7ba46b8485f124ec6199","label":"openclaw/openclaw@1835dec"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/32xxx/CVE-2026-32046.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-43x4-g22p-3hrq"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-32046"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/openclaw-os-level-sandbox-bypass-via-no-sandbox-flag"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/1835dec2004fe7a62c6a7ba46b8485f124ec6199"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/e7eba01efc4c3c400e9cfd3ce3d661cbc788a631"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-12T03:51:22.862148429Z"}}
