{"id":"CVE-2026-33573","aliases":["GHSA-2rqg-gjgv-84jm"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2026-33573","summary":"OpenClaw < 2026.3.11 - Workspace Boundary Bypass via Agent RPC Parameters","details":"### Summary\n\nThe public gateway `agent` RPC allowed an authenticated operator with `operator.write` to supply attacker-controlled `spawnedBy` and `workspaceDir` values. That let the caller re-root the agent run outside its configured workspace boundary.\n\n### Impact\n\nA non-owner operator could escape the intended workspace boundary and run normal file and exec tools from an arbitrary process-accessible directory.\n\n### Affected versions\n\n`openclaw` `<= 2026.3.8`\n\n### Patch\n\nFixed in `openclaw` `2026.3.11` and included in later releases such as `2026.3.12`. The gateway now enforces the configured workspace boundary for agent runs regardless of caller-supplied overrides.","published":"2026-03-29T12:44:31.060Z","modified":"2026-10-28T02:30:22.075241395Z","cvss":null,"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"openclaw","fixedVersion":"2026.3.11"}],"fix":null,"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/33xxx/CVE-2026-33573.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-2rqg-gjgv-84jm"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-33573"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/openclaw-workspace-boundary-bypass-via-agent-rpc-parameters"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/releases/tag/v2026.3.11"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-10-28T02:30:22.075241395Z"}}
