CVE-2026-41355

| Summary | OpenClaw: OpenShell `mirror` mode can convert untrusted sandbox files into explicitly enabled workspace hooks and execute them on the host during gateway startup ## Summary OpenShell `mirror` mode can convert untrusted sandbox files into explicitly enabled workspace hooks and execute them on the host during gateway startup ## Current Maintainer Triage - Status: narrow - Normalized severity: medium - Assessment: Real on shipped <=2026.3.22 OpenShell mirror sync, but exploit needs mirror mode plus hooks enabled plus explicit hook opt-in plus restart, so high is overstated even though the direct fix shipped in v2026.3.28. ## Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Latest published npm version: `2026.3.31` - Vulnerable version range: `<=2026.3.24` - Patched versions: `>= 2026.3.28` - First stable tag containing the fix: `v2026.3.28` ## Fix Commit(s) - `c02ee8a3a4cb390b23afdf21317aa8b2096854d1` — 2026-03-25T19:59:07Z ## Release Process Note - The fix is already present in released version `2026.3.28`. - This draft looks ready for final maintainer disposition or publication, not additional code-fix work. Thanks @tdjackey for reporting. |
