BREW-openclaw-cli-CVE-2026-44116 — OpenClaw validates Zalo outbound photo URLs through the SSRF guard

Affected: Homebrew: openclaw-cli

## Summary Zalo outbound photo URLs are validated through the SSRF guard.

## Affected Packages / Versions - Package: openclaw (npm) - Affected versions: <= 2026.4.21 - Fixed version: 2026.4.22

## Impact The Zalo plugin could forward an attacker-controlled outbound photo URL to the Zalo Bot API without first applying OpenClaw's SSRF validation policy.

## Fix Zalo sendPhoto now parses and validates outbound photo URLs with the shared SSRF hostname policy before posting to Zalo, and media-reply paths route through the guarded outbound media helpers.

## Fix Commit(s) - a65eb1b864b7630c1242a82de9e5799b80583c3f

## 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 @foodlook for reporting.

Affected: OpenClaw

OpenClaw before 2026.4.22 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the Zalo plugin's sendPhoto function that fails to validate outbound photo URLs through the SSRF guard. Attackers can bypass SSRF protection by providing malicious photo URLs to the Zalo Bot API, enabling unauthorized access to internal resources.
