- Summary
- OpenClaw affected by denial of service through unguarded archive extraction allowing high expansion/resource abuse (ZIP/TAR)
- Details
-
Summary
Archive extraction lacked strict resource budgets, allowing high-expansion ZIP/TAR archives to consume excessive CPU/memory/disk during install/update flows.
Affected Packages / Versions
- openclaw (npm): <= 2026.2.13
- clawdbot (npm): <= 2026.1.24-3
Details
Affected component:
src/infra/archive.ts(extractArchive).The extractor now enforces resource budgets (entry count and extracted byte limits; ZIP also enforces a compressed archive size limit) and rejects over-budget archives.

Release Process Note
