CVE-2026-41297Network attack vector

Internal resource access via unvalidated download redirects

Published Apr 20, 2026 · Updated Apr 20, 2026

Server-side request forgery in OpenClaw before 2026.3.31 allows remote authenticated users to access internal resources through redirects. src/plugins/marketplace.ts uses a redirect-following fetch for marketplace archives without validating each destination against SSRF restrictions. Exploitation requires a low-privileged account and passive user interaction to start a plugin download, exposing reachable internal data and limited state-changing requests.
