CVE-2026-45000Network attack vector

Authenticated SSRF via unchecked CDP profile URLs

Published May 11, 2026 · Updated May 11, 2026

Server-side request forgery in OpenClaw before 2026.4.20 allows remote authenticated users to reach private-network endpoints via CDP profiles. Browser profile creation normalizes and stores cdpUrl values without applying the configured SSRF policy, and profile status flows later probe the stored endpoint. Exploitation requires profile-creation access and a strict-mode deployment that disables private-network CDP targets; default trusted-operator behavior already permits those targets.
