Summary In OpenClaw, manually adding sort to tools.exec.safeBins could bypass allowlist approval via --compress-program This issue applies to a **non-default configuration** only. If `sort` is manually added to `tools.exec.safeBins`, OpenClaw could treat `sort --compress-program=<prog>` as valid safe-bin usage. In `security=allowlist` + `ask=on-miss`, this could satisfy allowlist checks and skip operator approval, while GNU `sort` may invoke an external program via `--compress-program`.
