GHSA-55CF-XX38-4P9P
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-04 20:22 – Updated: 2026-05-19 15:56Summary
Workspace dotenv files cannot override connector endpoint hosts.
Affected Packages / Versions
- Package: openclaw (npm)
- Affected versions: <= 2026.4.21
- Fixed version: 2026.4.22
Impact
A workspace .env file could set connector endpoint variables for Matrix, Mattermost, IRC, or Synology-related connectors and redirect runtime traffic away from the operator-configured endpoint.
Fix
Workspace .env loading now blocks those endpoint variables, including per-account Matrix homeserver suffixes and generic base-url/API-host style overrides. Trusted global runtime dotenv loading remains separate.
Fix Commit(s)
- 0623079e98abf7202591f1b04a89755eb7ec9272
Verification
- The fix commit is contained in the public v2026.4.22 tag.
- openclaw@2026.4.22 is published on npm and the compiled package contains the fix.
- Focused regression coverage for this path passed before publication.
OpenClaw thanks @qi-scape for reporting.

GHSA-583G-G682-CRXF
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-02-09 15:19 – Updated: 2024-02-09 15:19Summary
Enabled but unsecured management endpoints are susceptible to drive-by localhost attacks. While not typical of a production application, these attacks may have more impact on a development environment where such endpoints may be flipped on without much thought.
Details
A malicious/compromised website can make HTTP requests to localhost. Normally, such requests would trigger a CORS preflight check which would prevent the request; however, some requests are "simple" and do not require a preflight check. These endpoints, if enabled and not secured, are vulnerable to being triggered.
Impact
Production environments typically disable unused endpoints and secure/restrict access to needed endpoints. A more likely victim is the developer in their local development host, who has enabled endpoints without security for the sake of easing development.

CAPEC-219: XML Routing Detour Attacks
An attacker subverts an intermediate system used to process XML content and forces the intermediate to modify and/or re-route the processing of the content. XML Routing Detour Attacks are Adversary in the Middle type attacks (CAPEC-94). The attacker compromises or inserts an intermediate system in the processing of the XML message. For example, WS-Routing can be used to specify a series of nodes or intermediaries through which content is passed. If any of the intermediate nodes in this route are compromised by an attacker they could be used for a routing detour attack. From the compromised system the attacker is able to route the XML process to other nodes of their choice and modify the responses so that the normal chain of processing is unaware of the interception. This system can forward the message to an outside entity and hide the forwarding and processing from the legitimate processing systems by altering the header information.
