Remote code execution via upstream request poisoning
Published Mar 11, 2026 · Updated Mar 11, 2026
Code injection in OpenClaw Agent Platform 2026.2.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary terminal commands. The platform lacks integrity validation for upstream API requests, allowing an intermediary to append prompt instructions that become MCP terminal-tool calls. The attack requires control of the upstream request path; successful injection runs commands on the OpenClaw host without human confirmation.
