CVE-2026-24222Network attack vector

Host environment-variable disclosure via prompt injection

Published Apr 28, 2026 · Updated Apr 28, 2026

Improper access control in NVIDIA NemoClaw before 0.0.18 allows remote attackers to disclose host environment variables via prompt injection. During sandbox environment initialization, prompt-injected content causes the agent to read and exfiltrate host environment variables that sandbox creation fails to restrict. No authentication or user interaction is required, and the reported consequence is limited to disclosure of host environment data.
