CVE-2026-41369Network attack vector

Authenticated information disclosure via unsafe environment overrides

Published Apr 27, 2026 · Updated Apr 27, 2026

Environment sanitization flaws in OpenClaw before 2026.3.31 allow remote authenticated users to disclose host data through exec requests. The sanitizeHostExecEnv policy uses an incomplete denylist and passes variables that redirect package sources, Docker endpoints, compiler paths, and TLS trust roots. Access to an authorized host-execution surface is required; the published assessments identify confidentiality impact only.
