State: Published
Severity: 7.0 High
Published: Apr 28, 2026
Updated: Apr 29, 2026
Reserved: Apr 20, 2026

Description

OpenClaw before 2026.3.28 contains an execution approval vulnerability in exec-approvals-allowlist.ts that allows allow-always persistence to trust wrapper carrier executables instead of invoked targets. Attackers can exploit positional carrier executable routing through dispatch wrappers to establish broader allowlist entries than intended, weakening execution approval boundaries.
