Summary
Duplicate Advisory: OpenClaw: system.run approval identity mismatch could execute a different binary than displayed
Details

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-hwpq-rrpf-pgcq. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.25 contain an approval-integrity bypass vulnerability in system.run where rendered command text is used as approval identity while trimming argv token whitespace, but runtime execution uses raw argv. An attacker can craft a trailing-space executable token to execute a different binary than what the approver displayed, allowing unexpected command execution under the OpenClaw runtime user when they can influence command argv and reuse an approval context.
