CVE-2026-26320Network attack vector

Command execution via truncated deep-link confirmation

Published Feb 19, 2026 · Updated Feb 19, 2026

UI misrepresentation in OpenClaw macOS desktop client 2026.2.6 through 2026.2.13 allows remote attackers to conceal agent commands. DeepLinkHandler showed only the first 240 characters of an unkeyed openclaw://agent message in its confirmation alert, then submitted the complete message after approval. Exploitation requires a user to select Run; resulting agent actions can reach arbitrary command execution only when configured tool approvals or allowlists permit it.
